I think there is a good chance of finding a buddy. The first post in this thead has all the details. I think almost all the divers will be participating in the clean up. But that is just a guess, knowing the Conchs.

I am hoping to do several cave dives over the weekend, but at any time that I am not doing so, I would be really happy to dive with him. And at any other time, buddies are usually readily available. Us Conch divers are pretty much dive.... um, well, we like to dive, and we like to dive with just about anybody, at any time. 
And Da Fool is an excellent buddy!
What are the plans for Saturday night dinner? I know it was a fend for yurself type deal before it got so big. Is this the same itinerary?

Don't do it.JahJahwarrior:So, if I've never done a river dive and infact only have a few dives under my belt, am I going to die on saturday?
really though, how hard will it be to dive in current?
And the suggestion is to be overweighted? Ok....maybe I'll have to buy some more weight
I'll be bringing an extra 30-40 # soft weight and several extra weight belts.
This will be above and beyond what I plan to use.
The extra weight is suggested due to the shallow nature of the river - it comes up to about 3' deep and can be up to 20' deep at one turn. The bottom is quite rocky, with some sandy patches.
As for missing the exit, its almost an hour down the river from Devils to the tube exit - where we normally get out. Practically nobody makes it that far, particularly as we are on a working dive its likely to be harder still to remain down that long. We usually drift into the exit on the surface.

Hmm...souns like a cave divers get together. What about us mere mortals who choose to stayoutside the caves?

most of the Conchs who attend are not cave divers
the cavers are in the minority
