Sounds like a fun time to be had. I'm fairly new to the board, and will be getting my AOW cert in the week or two before the 30Oct date. I've signed up on the link that Headhunter posted. I'll be able to show up early and help set up, go ahead and PM me if there's anything I can do.
Like I said, I'm new, so I don't know anybody, and I haven't dived (dove? duv? diven?) the Shores or the Cove (I've snorkeled the Cove a few times, but that's it). So hopefully I can buddy up with someone who knows what the heck there is to see and do, and hopefully keep myself out of too much trouble.
