EVENTS 

   UNDERWATER TREASURE HUNT   AUGUST 2008  10:00 am  Burtchville Twp. Park

This will be Dive Inn's 4th annual TREASURE HUNT to benefit BLUE WATER HOSPICE.

This has always been a fun event and one we look forward to.  All the money raised goes to Hospice to provide care to families in need, caregiver support programs and grief support services.  Blue Water Hospice is a non-profit organization that provides support and comfort care to those who are terminally ill.  They also have introduced a Palliative Care Program for those who are seeking agressive treatment but need help with pain or activities of daily living. We couldn't put this event on without the help of Michigan Lake Divers Association who provide hot dogs, hamburgers and all the fixings.  All this and the chance to win a fabulous prize can be yours!   Sign up now at Dive Inn  - chances are $20/ball.  We have several prizes already for which we thank our very generous manufacturers.  Among them are: 

                                                  DIVE COMPUTER - DIVE RITE

                                                  BC - AQUA LUNG                                                                              

                                                  ROLLER BAG - DEEP SEE

                                                  MASK - XCESS SCUBA

                                                  DIVE KNIFE - XCESS SCUBA

And this is just the start - the retail community has also been very generous sponsors of this event, donating dinners, gift certificates and other goodies. 

****THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO PARTICIPATED IN THE TREASURE HUNT HELD LAST YEAR.  TOGETHER WE RAISED OVER $3000 FOR BLUEWATER HOSPICE.  IT WAS GREAT FUN!****

DIVE TRIPS 

  FLORIDA SPRINGS TRIP     FEB. 28 - MARCH 3, 2008

Contact store for details.

BONNE TERRE MINE TRIP    MARCH 28, 2008 - MARCH 30, 2008

   $350.00 p.p. (Includes 4 guided dives, 2 nights lodging and tank rental)

This is a fantastic experience for beginners and advanced divers alike.  Located just 60 miles south of St. Louis, Bonne Terre has drawn divers from around the world, including Capt. Jacques-Yves Cousteau and the crew of the Calypso.  Lead was mined in Bonne Terre up till 1961, when the pumps that kept the mine dry were turned off.   Bonne Terre Mine slowly filled with pure, crystalline water that filtered through the surrounding rock.  What had been the world's largest lead mine became the world's largest underground lake.  Visibility exceeds 100 feet, and since it was cheaper to leave much of the old equipment behind rather than haul it out, divers can see the original one-ton ore cars, old steam engine, and the door of the timekeeper's shed, where the miners punched in and out.  Inside the mine the air temperature is 63'F year-round.  Water temps in the underground lake are 58'F year-round.  No lights are needed as more than 500,000 watts of lighting illuminate the 24 guided trails. 

Lodging is plentiful - whether you prefer the divers lodge on premises or the 1909 Depot or Mansion Hill Inn - there is something in your price range.
