I am getting a little nervous that maybe the are not having a clean-up dive at Minnetonka this year.  Has anyone heard anything about it? 
The MN Frogmen needed to renegotiate the site this year. Maynards has been a most gracious host but we needed a new location for this years event. The date is June 17th andthe specs are being negotiated with the new host. I will post specifics other than the confirmed date, soon. It is going to be bigger and better than ever this year! Linda
