What time do I need to be there?
Divers need to be at the Reservoir by 8 am. The scuba parking lot is at the north end of the reservoir, by the dam (see map here). Divers must pay the park fee ($10 as of June 2010) at the main gatehouse and then turn around to get to the SCUBA lot. We will have our van shuttling gear over the dam to the dive beach starting at 7:00am.

How long is each dive day?
Please plan on being at the reservoir until 2pm. Usually the dive days are done before this, but each group is a little different and timing is based on each group.

What should I bring?
We recommend bringing the following:

• Your SCUBA gear (either owned or rented), consisting of a regulator, BCD, wetsuit, weights, mask, fins and snorkel.
• Sunscreen.
• Bug spray
• Clothes for incelement weather. Of course we hope for sunny days, but weather happens.
• Water. We will have water and Gatorade/lemonade but it's a good idea to have your own.
• Towels, beach and personal.
• Snacks. We will provide burgers and hot dogs with all the fixins, but you may want some snacks before they're ready.

You also may think about bringing some shade and/or chairs. We will have our awning set up, but space is limited.
