Our annual Treasure Dive will be held next Sunday May 22nd at Square Lake County Park.  This is our 23rd annual Treasure Dive and we had a great turn out last year (around 50 divers) on a cold and rainy day.  The weather looks to be much better for next weekend (I've heard upper 70's).  We hope you'll get a chance to join us.  The water entry is at 2:00pm, with a briefing held at 1:30.  Most participants arrive around 12:30 in order to be ready to hit the water right at 2:00.  If you haven't attended before, the treasure is/are numbered bricks that are planted on the bottom of a specific area (roped off) of the lake.  Each brick is numbered and the numbers corespond to a prize (anything from a regulator or B.C. to a mask and a bottle of defog.  We make sure that all prizes have at least a $20.00 retail value.  Only one brick per diver is allowed, but after the awarding of brick prizes, all remaining prizes are given away in a drawing so many divers take home more than one prize.  Each participant is invited to join us for a picnic lunch following the dive.  Family members are welcome, just let us know how many so we can plan for the picnic.  Registration is $30.00 in advance or $40.00 the day of.  All participants also recieve the Treasure Dive t-shirt.  Call the dive shop to register at 763-574-1280
The prizes are piling up, the forcast looks great and there's still time to pre-register.  We've recieved many prizes from manufacturers including - a regulator from Aqualung, a Seaquest B.C., 2- dive computers from Aeris, Apollo split fins and much more.

Just wanted to thank everyone who came out for the dive.  Once again, we had a great turn out (46 divers and 25 staff).  It's always encouraging to see so many good local divers come out for this early season event.  Don't forget our Tuesday Evening Fun Dives start next week and our first All Weekend Fun Dive takes place  the 2nd weekend of June up at Crosby, hope to see you there.
