Winter Hours
I am sure you noticed on the quick calendar that we are using our winter hours schedule now. What exactly does that mean? You need to know that once the season slows down in this area...it really slows down. Usually during Nov, Dec and Jan unless we have something scheduled it’s me and the little cricket that lives here sitting in the store looking at each other. Which is okay but there is only so much of that the cricket can take! : ) So I decided last season to not physically be in the store on Tues and Wed but keep our regular hours on Thurs, Fri and Sat. Now that does not mean that if you need to come in on a Tues you cannot, I assure you that you can you will just need to call me and let me know when you want to come by. I will gladly help you whenever it is convenient for you. But it also allows me to do other things with my time if nobody needs me.
Rescue Practice Each January we invite any students that have their Rescue Diver Certification to come join us and practice their skills. There is no charge to participate. We will have our entire instruction staff available to assist in your practice. If after your practice you want to participate in a different manner, we would be more than happy if you want to play victims. So let’s run down the list of excuses we get each year as to why people don’t show up: It’s cold…...the pool is heated and it is quite steamy in the YMCA pool area. Bring warm clothes to wear home. I’ve put my gear away….get it out! It’s been a while since I took my Rescue Class….then you are the most important person at the event! I don’t have a buddy….my entire staff is there to be your buddy I don’t want to mess up….that’s why it is important to practice. The list goes on and on. We should be inundated with people for this event and yet each January we only see a small percentage of the certified Rescue Divers that should be there. Please come. It’s actually a great morning in the pool and you can practice as many times as you like. We hope we never have to use our Rescue skills but doesn’t it make since to keep them sharp, just in case? It will be especially important for those looking to start a Divemaster course in 2026 to take advantage of this practice. Come join us Sunday Jan 25 from 8a-10a at the Owensboro YMCA. Please let us know if you are attending. If you need rental gear please contact the store to reserve what you need for the practice.
2026 OW Season
Our 2026 Open Water Class/Pool sessions will start again February of 2026. That does not mean that we are unable to do special sessions or private lessons upon request. We are here all year and will do whatever you need to help you get in the water! Each of our students are so very important to us and we know you have a choice in your training and we are so glad when our students allow us the privilege of introducing them to their first underwater experience! Please know you are appreciated and we look forward to all our upcoming adventures together!
Quote of the Month:
“Christmas is a season not only of rejoicing but of reflection.” Winston Churchill
Want to Discover Scuba?? We offer a free scuba tryout session called a Discover Scuba. We can let you try scuba diving before you make the big commitment of the certification class. We highly recommend a Discover to anyone who is not quite sure that diving is for them. We need about 1 hour of your time, we provide all the equipment you need, there is a little bit of paperwork but best of all it’s FREE!! So, what are you waiting for, call us and set up your appointment to try scuba diving. We think you’ll love it as much as we do!!!
