$945.00 was raised for the Emerald platform and steps from the Dive Rite gift certificate raffled Saturday at the Cave Excursions' party. I haven't checked with Sandy Cook for an exact amount, but total funds raised to date are in the approximate amount of $3,500.00 toward the $8,000.00 needed.

A second Dive Rite gift certificate ($1,000.00) will be raffled at the NACD Seminar on November 12.

Thanks to all of those who have donated. If you have not done so yet, any amount will help.

Yours,

Johnny Richards
