You just did!
Seriously, just show up at Ginnie Springs. Review the first post in this thread for all the updates and Need to Know info.

How do I sign up for the Megadive?

Consider yourself signed up!

There's no formal list: keeping one proved far too difficult. When you show up at Ginnie, let them know you are with Scubaboard in the Turkey Roost camping area and they'll show you how to get there. There's no difference in rates or anything, as far as Ginnie is concerned, you are just another customer. Then just drive on over and start putting faces to usernames!

Cool! There are way too many messages to scan through. Will there be enough camping sites if we just "show up"?

 

[Scuba_Jenny]

Yes. We have room for about 50 tents. Average Megadive is about 15.

There are more than 15 people, but most people share tents--families, etc. Just to clarify

Personally, I bring a sleeping bag and find a convenient picnic table (and yes, I can hear you all as you say "Is that JahJah sleeping on the table?" in the early morning hours, I'm a light sleeper at times)

There is more than enough room for you!!

At the rate I'm going, I'll be living on a picnic table next year here at UCF.... have you made housing arrangements yet??
Not that I mind sleeping on picnic tables, right, it's just there's no room for dive gear or musical instruments, and girls wouldn't want to hang out at my place very much....

It sounds as though we can forget about river drift dives for this MegaDive. Less than a month to go, and tannic down to 40' in the Ear. I doubt there will be any visibility at all in the river.

Other than the aftermath of the hurricanes a few years back, has anyone ever seen or heard of the Devil's System being undivable? Just curious.

And ya'll know that I'll keep ya a updated on dat River Level , temperiator and Vizerbility like stuff there.

Da Bean suffering from TOO MUCH New Jersey (EEK)
I.E. This is your brain on New Jersey (erp)

P.S. On a more sane note , if the River itself was like the Ear last Friday , it was a dark as ink. I was right on top of my buddies going down and from 5 feet away , all I could see was bubbles. When we hit 40 feet , it cleared right back up (spits again)
