January
Meeting
Our
January
meeting will be Wednesday, January 11th. (Our regular
meetings are always the second Wednesday of each month).
Socializing
starts at 6:00 pm and the meeting starts at 6:30 pm.
The
meeting will be at our regular location at Athen's
Café Greek
Restaurant at 6271
St. Augustine Road. They have a private room reserved
for us that has accommodated us nicely. Socializing begins
at 6:00pm with the meeting starting at 6:30).
 All
entries for the Scubanauts' Annual Photo Contest for the
2011 year must be submitted by the end of the January meeting.
No late entries will be accepted. Scubanauts members who
went on our Roatan, Honduras trip last June saw some fabulous
images when everyone reviewed the day's photos at dinner
each night. So we can't wait to see what surfaces for
this contest!
Don't
forget to submit your photos! You can review the rules
for submssions here.
Our
annual Christmas Party went off swimminglyl We had a good
turnout and a great evening! Clark's Fish Camp did a very
good job for us this year in terms of servers; adding an
additional server or two to those provided the previous
year.
Club
dues are now seriously overdue for anyone not yet caught
up. So any members who have not yet paid, please bring
a check
to
the meeting
to cover them.
There
are still some Scubanauts logo shirts and caps left from
our last order. So if you didn't get want you wanted, check
with Lynda to see what stock remains.
We're
still looking for more material for our club Photo
Gallery. Check
out the entries so far! Members, send in
some for your own page. We're adding more pages
for
Photo
contests
and club
trips soon.
Dive reports from 25 miles offshore Jax say that the 'vis
is "a dirty 30" and the bottom temps are running around 63.
The 'vis is worse inshore.
You might want to check for usable 'vis before diving this
time of year. A Great White was sighted at depth offshore
two weeks ago in the "BR" area.
The NOAA’s
National Data Buoy Center Station
41012 sea
buoy found 40 miles ENE of St. Augustine is still
reporting wave heights of 1-1/2 to 2 feet with surface
temps around
70 degrees for the past 24 hours.
Newcomers, come check
our membership
pages to find out more about joining the Scubanauts!
If you have any ideas for speakers, please
let your officers know. We always need new ideas!
