[FW]

Registration is now open for the NSS-CDS Workshop May 24-26

http://nsscdsworkshop2013.eventbrite.com/

The 2013 Workshop will be held at the Wakulla County High School, in Crawfordville, FL on May 24-27th 2013.

There will be a social Friday evening at Indian Springs, 6:30pm, please get a free ticket for it, so we know how many to expect.

Register before May 15, and get a free t-shirt.

The theme for the 2013 Workshop is:

TMI - Training, Mentoring & International Standards.

The discussion topics will revolve around these three subjects with the intent of making sure that while equipment becomes better, sites become more accessible, training more attainable that we continue to produce better divers and we don't just hand them a card and turn them loose but mentor them so they that become quality divers. International Standards will be discussed so that we may pick up some ideas about ways that we could change to meet these needs as well.

Edd Sorenson, Complacency

Steve Lewis, Adhering to standards/International Standards

Brett Hemphill, Degradation of training

So as a few of you may have heard I did my 100th dive in a bikini on December '12 (video editing still pending! Bobby get to work!!). After this I do not think I would chicken out selling raffle tickets for the CDS in a bikini... maybe.

So come to the CDS Workshop regardless! Register early people!!
