There is no meeting in July

Please join me in giving a warm welcome to our newest members, Bruce and Pam Carroll, from Newberry, Florida.  For anyone who may not know it, Newberry is a charming city in the southwest corner of Alachua County and part of the Gainesville Metropolitan Statistical Area…the perfect setting for the horse farm they call home.

Bruce and Pam first met USA members of the Club on our recent overseas dive trip to San Salvador, and they’re already looking forward to joining us on next year’s exciting dive trip to the Philippines.

They’re both experienced, well-traveled divers with more than 1,000 dives each.  Bruce holds an Advanced Open Water certification, and Pam is a Divemaster.  Their adventures have taken them to incredible places like the Socorro Islands in Mexico, where they dove with giant mantas.

Some of the other destinations they hope to dive include the Cocos Islands, the Galapagos Islands, and Cuba, once conditions improve there.  Warm, clear water filled with large pelagics and interesting macro life would be a bonus on any dive.

When they’re not diving, Pam enjoys practicing dressage with her horse…a beautiful skill often described as “ballet on horseback”…and Bruce can usually be found in his workshop, wood turning when not taking care of the farm.

Bruce and Pam, the USA Dive Club is delighted to welcome you, and we hope you enjoy being part of our group.

We’d love for you to check out our extensive Photo Gallery, where you can dive into all the fun from our social events and diving adventures.  We update the albums regularly, so there’s always something fresh for you to enjoy. 

Happy diving, everyone.  Let’s keep the good vibes going!

See you in August
