I posted in the Intro forum:

but thought I would make a quick "Hi" here as well. I'm pretty much up for whatever diving people want to do local (I'm in Fountain Hills) and have most weekends free (weekdays after 3ish).

Welcome to Scubaboard. We dive quite a bit locally up at lake pleasant. I just posted a dive update at Academy of Scuba

Hopefully we will see you out there soon!

Is there a calender/page/something somewhere that people usually post on to set something up? I'm going to El Mar's Easter egg hunt next Sat morning out at pleasant.

Hey seagraves1,

There are a couple of stickys at the top of the SWSS forum that deal with diving at Lake Pleasant. We usually post something there when we're looking for dive buddies. There is a pretty good contingent of regulars that dive almost every weekend.

There are several places to shore dive at the lake and there's always the Scubateer's dive boat. Other diving options are:
Salt River; Literally a clean-up dive waiting to happen but the current makes it a fun drift dive.
Saguaro lake is pretty murky but doable (hey, better than not diving).
We tried Roosevelt Lake in November. I want to get back there this summer.

There are other places in the state plus San Diego, LA and San Carlos, Mexico.

See you at the lake.

Steve.
