JB Access questions

[Jay M]

I'm planning my first trip to Jackson Blue, and I've got a couple of questions. I know you need cash for the daily access fees, but what about the yearly pass? Will they take a check or charge for that? Also, are there particular hours for check-in & check-out at the sheriff's office?

Thanks

I believe you can check in at anytime, I know you can check out at anytime. On the sign in sheet you have to put a time to leave, most people just put down midnight, there's no penalty or anything for leaving early.

I don't know about the annuals, sorry.

Enjoy your dives, JB is awesome.

On both the pink daily pass and the yellow annual pass it says, "Payable by cash or check (with proper ID) made payable to: JACKSON COUNTY COMMISSION." The annual pass also says, "$300.00 per person, $300.00 per 2 person team."

Hope this helps.

you need cash, for all passes, if you need someone to go in on a pass send me a line. Nick

Despite what it says on the pass about accepting checks the current policy (and this is posted inside the station at the check in window) is for cash only and preferably exact change. Check in/out is available 24/7 during the off season (Labor Day - Memorial Day). You must sign in and out each day that you dive with the official change over time being midnite. Sometimes, depending on who is working, I am able to get away with going in at midnight to sign out for the day and then turn right around and sign back in for the next day thus avoiding a trip back over when I wake up in the morning. Hope to see you there this weekend.

You know, you're right. Although it says on the pass that checks are accepted, now that you mention it, I do remember that sign on the window, "Cash only for impound and diving fees."

I stand corrected.

If your car gets impounded, Dewayne probably had something to do with it hehe.. but if that's all that happens consider yourself "blessed" - others have suffered FAR worse fates than a simple impound, or so I hear!!

OK, one more question and then I'll stop. Does Verizon have decent coverage at the dive shop and out at the dive site?
