What is the Wrinkles Dive?

This is a monthly gathering of all divers and non-divers in SoCal who can make it. It's a lot of fun involving diving, eating, socializing and sometimes even camping!

It all started when our SoCal member, Wrinkles, mentioned to a group that she dove with that it would be really fun to be able to get together at least once a month. Pasley, took off with the idea and announced the first "Wrinkles Dive". The rest is history!

It's open to everyone of all skill levels from "I'm not certified yet" to "Do we really have to dive the Andrea Doria again?"

We've found this to be a great way to meet our fellow divers locally and many new dive buddies have been found though these "dive soirees".

[riguerin]

Team Guerin will be there. We'll bring the weenies and buns.

 

[Roughwaterjohn]

Count me in please. I'd like to reprise my off-broadway role as Banana-Boy again if I may. The reviews have been good, so why stop now?

 

[wrinkles]

Count me in. I am even bringing the little guy this time. (well not so little anymore) I might drop him off before dinner though so I can still enjoy some after dive festivities with everyone.

Cant Wait!!!!

I will bring something sweet to eat....yum yum

 

[Divmstr223]

If all goes well...I'll definitely attend!! Haven't dived Laguna in quite some time... Would like to get out there again... I'm a tenative yes right now...:14:

 

[California Diver]

welllllllll ive never been divin up there so... im in

 

[Roughwaterjohn]

Count me in.

I need no more. Air and sustenance are mere frivolities while Ana shares my world.

Glad you're bringing Anthony! It'll be good for him to be able to identify what troublemakers look like while he's still at such a young age. The experience should serve him well. If my sole purpose in life is to be a warning to others, my life is complete.

 

[Glycerin]

Count me in,

and put me down for the BBQ grill accessories

 

[Ann Marie]

COUNT ME IN! I'll bring oranges! Whoo hoo!
