Florida Certification Trip: May 8 - 11, 2008

If you have done your confined water (pool) training and want to complete your open water certification dives, this is a great opportunity. We will dive in several beautiful Florida freshwater springs. It’s an affordable and fun trip that won’t destroy your budget or require a lot of time off from work. Here is the schedule:

Thursday, May 8: travel to Gainesville, Florida (divers are responsible for their own travel, driving or flying)
Friday & Saturday, May 9-10: Dive at locations such as Blue Grotto, Devil’s Den, and Ginnie Springs
Sunday, May 11: travel home

Costs: $200 per person for a fun diver, $400 per person if you are doing your certification dives. Costs are based on double-occupancy hotel rooms. Single person rooms will incure a slightly higher rate. Your fee includes air fills, equipment use, admission to one dive site per day, and lodging at the Days Inn-Gainesville. You are responsible for your own transportation and meals.

Other Courses Offered: For divers who are already certified, we can also offer the Advanced Open Water course and a variety of other specialty classes on this trip.

Call New Horizons at 277-1234 for more information. Please come to the shop to pay for the trip in order to secure your place on the trip.

Scuba Review: Monday, May 19

Has it been more than six months since you were diving? Are you going on a scuba vacation and the dive shop where you are going said you need a refresher or review course? This is a great way to make sure you are sharp on your skills and are ready to step off the back of the boat. Our one night Scuba Review is for divers who are certified at any level who want to refresh their skills and techniques before their trip. Why waste your first couple of vacation dives trying to iron out problems? Take this review with us and one of our Divemasters will lead you through a comprehensive knowledge refresher in the classroom, then take you to the UK pool for a couple of hours of water work. When you have completed the evening, you will receive a sticker for your certification card that shows you went through the program (see below). We can also certify that you completed the review in your log book.

Scuba review

Date & Time: Monday, May 19, 6:00pm - 10:00pm
Cost: $75 per person for one to three, $50 per person for four or more
Prerequisite: certified beginner diver from any scuba agency

We require advance payment to insure that the review will take place. Please come to New Horizons to sign up and confirm your scuba review. Thanks!
