TDI/SDI is proud to host the first Rec-2-Tek week in the Upper Keys, featuring Richie Kohler and John Chatterton. Put on by the members of the Upper Keys Association of Dive and Snorkel Operators, the organizations members include Garden Cove Divers, Horizon Divers, History of Dive Museum, and Conch Republic Divers. Activities include technical diving classes at all the shops, diving on the wrecks of the Spiegel Grove, Duane, Eagle, and Bibb, as well as, technical diving for those qualified on the Northern Lights and Queen of Nassau. Most of the wreck dives will be double dips giving those with doubles and CCR training extended time to explore these wrecks. Classes included TDI certifications for tri-mix, advanced nitrox, deco procedures, advanced wreck which will be taught at the participating shops.

Special guest Richie Kohler and John Chatterton will be teaching together for the first time ever during the event and offering a 3 certification course consisting of Advanced Nitrox, Deco Procedures, and Advanced Wreck. These two accomplished wreck divers will also be hosting several activities during the week long events, from a happy hour at Buzzards Roost, book signing and presentation at History of Diving Museum, and a BBQ at Horizon Divers. This will give the attendees to the event a chance to meet, talk, and ask questions of them.

Scubaocity.com, a new on-line dive tracking/reservation system for dive shops is creating a calendar of these events and can be accessed on UPPER KEYS ASSOCIATION of DIVE & SNORKEL OPERATORS, the non-profit organizations website. The system will allow you to sign up on-line for any of the dives, instruction, or activities occurring during the event.

We hope this will prove to be another successful event hosting by the Upper Keys Association of Dive and Snorkel Operators who have previously hosted three successful Island Sun Splash events in the area. For more information please visit or call any of the participating dive shops.
Good Diving,

Now that Richie is all "Tekked Up", maybe he can unload off some of his old dive gear at the museum? They might need some out of hydro aluminum 80 doubles and Navy bands?

We have a bunch of stuff going on, so anyone who is in the neighborhood, please feel free to come on by and say hello.

Cheers
