Searching for TX lake diver cert info

[WaterWayne]

Was it here within the last year that I heard about a proposed certification for Texas lake diving? I've searched this forum a couple of times with different word combo's, but no joy. At the time, wherever I heard about it, it was just proposed.

TIA,
Wayne

You mean an agency recognized specialy in Lake Diving? I haven't heard of any such thing.

With PADI you can get a specialty for near anything. Up in College Station, we're firming up an "aggie diver" specialty, which'll involve at least one dive where yell practice is conducted... underwater. I think we have to wear overalls for dive #2, and attend a mandatory post-dive beer bash.

Archman,
Maybe they could include the football team showing up since they didn't make it to the Cotton Bowl. :06:
Diving at the "Chicken"!!!

Yes Wayne there has been dicussion of a Texas Diver PADI specialty,,,,,a local LDS has been working on that,,,,last I heard it would require you to have made dives in Texas lakes/quarries/rivers/coastal waters. Don't know were it stands at this time.
