We are getting close to the workshop, and look forward to seeing you. We got a great line up of speakers:
Vertical workshop is being performed by Forrest Wilson. This is a chance to experience single rope technique and get an introduction. Some caves require having skills in this area to safely access
History of Sidemount with Bill Rennaker. Bill was a primary figure in developing the current sidemount rig that is sold by many commercial manufactuers. He has an evolution of rigs that he made, and it is fascinating to hear about the early days of sidemounting
Sidemount clinic with Lamar Hires. Lamar who is another part of the equation of developing the modern sidemount rig,and actively leads Dive Rite in developing and creating newer rigs to meet the demands of the modern diver
Surveying is something that used to be taught with a full cave class,but is rarely done, except by exploration teams. Join Adam Hughes, who has actively explored systems, as well surveyed , in learning about this practice, and then techniques involved
Cylinder Maintenance with David Zappala from Advanced Hydrotest. Learn about taking care of your tanks to prolong the life, and what testing procedures are necessary
Decompression Illness discussion by Joe Dituri of Undersea Oxygen Clinic. A joint project was complete between the NFSA and Undersea Oxygen Clinic to provide a phamplet for diver education, and he will give an explanation.

Bring your questions and bring your appetite since lunch will be served. Price is $15 and free to members. Our Evenbrite site went down, but we have pleanty of space. A PM is appreciated so we have an approximate head count

I was already disappointed at not being able to dive this weekend, but I was still looking very much forward to coming up and mingling.

I have had a nasty plumbing issue present itself today, and am now unable to get out of town this weekend. I hope everyone has a great time and look forward to seeing you folks on down the line.
