White Star Quarry will be open for diving this coming weekend March 6 - 7 from 10am until 4pm. You have to be registered by 1pm to dive! The scuba concession building will be heated and we are heating the changing rooms for the day, so we are planning on diving regardless of the weather. Visibility should be fantastic.

We are planning on having FREE coffee, hot chocolate, soup and hotdogs for anyone who shows up to dive you must register at the Concession building since we different rules for winter diving. Be careful to check out the web page before you leave to come down since there may be ice on the quarry which will limit diving to ice certified divers. We will post it here and on our web page or you can call at 419 637 DIVE.

Remember the quarry opens for diving every day April 1st at 8am!

Looking forward to diving with you in 2010.
