Chase Sub Aqua Latest News 2011




Saturday 12.02.11  Cracking days diving at Capernwray, 15m viz but 4oC temperature -ouch! Well impressed with the new aircraft fuselage, plenty to see and keep your mind off the cold fingers (almost!).  Thanks to Paul Rhodes Catering Co. for the surface interval refreshments and Katie & Sean for marshalling. Big Sut and Mark got plenty photos which will be on the Gallery soon.

Tuesday 25.01.11 and the AGM got underway, with almost a full house.  Proceedings started well with Bode doing the traditional calling the meeting to order ("Time, Ladies please"). The committee has been subject to sweeping changes - not !, -Marks treasurer, Ians Secretary and the rest  can start humming "Rocking All Over the World".

The ensuing discussions passed off without any need for 'fistycuffs' most of the time, with the main subjects being:

  • The forthcoming refurbishment of Chase Leisure Centre.
  • The raising of the minimum training age to 16 yrs.
  • Servicing of open water regs & cylinders.

Big Sutt is on the dive calendar again this year after doing a brill job last year.  The Weymouth trip dates were confirmed, see the AGM minutes in the members page.With the hard work all done, the real point of the meeting could get under way - eating the food, thanks to all who contributed - (Bode there's 17 of us , not 107).

The club gallery pages were updated at the end of 2010 and now includes some of the 2010 activities.

Latest diving was Dosthill last Sunday, where the water's a bammy 5oC at the surface, 4oC at 20m - viz is good though which kind of makes up for not being able to feel your fingers.
