    Default Vandalism at Orange Grove

    This has been reported by the park ranger that someone has written "_uck Obama" on the cave wall at Orange Grove. I have not personally seen this,nor do I know where it is located,but it is felt it was written around last Wed. If anybody has seen this,or have a photograph,please PM me. This is time for us as a community to show the DEP that we don't tolerate this behavior,and try to locate the individual responsible for this.

    I really hope you guys catch the person/persons who did this and they get punished big time. Get them banned for life from all caves

    It was seen this past Saturday, kill Obama and a racial slur. The cave diver did his best to obscure, but it was fairly deep in a rock outside the cave entrance! It was felt that this was done by an open water diver.

    I am hoping on getting a location. It was reported as being in the cave,but I would like to know if it was in open water.

    We didn't see it on Wednesday, but on Saturday afternoon, it was there, and we reported it. There were plenty of divers in the water at Orange Grove Saturday before our dive. When was the first time anyone reported seeing it? I hope we get the b@$+@rds who did this.

    I'm planning on diving OG this weekend.

    If someone will give me details on the graffiti location, I will try to get a photograph.

    FWIW: except for me and my buddy on Sat morning, I only saw classes Sat. When did this occur? The basin vis was "not good"
