:wub:WOW! SingleDivers.com is 4 years old today! :usflag:

Its been an amazing four years! We've grown to over 4300 members from 21 different countries in the world with active members in Australia, England, Canada and of course all over the US.

We were just featured this week on www.DiverWire.com and we've been getting lots of recognition for meeting the needs of single, solo and buddyless divers.


We have a host of great things in store for the new year...including some new security updates for the site that are underway, :thankyou: a new shopping cart that just needs the new finishing touches, :cool1: and ongoing streamlining of the site to make it easier to use and understand. We've streamlined the way we post our trips giving you a 'calendar view' as well as listing them in our online calendar with more enhancements coming soon!

We have a very special treat for you...awhile back Michael aka Neptuner wrote a song about SingleDivers.com and then he added another verse for us and we have the song hosted on the site. Be sure to check it out here! IT ROCKS!!! And it sooooooooooo expresses what SingleDivers.com is all about! Michael you did an amazing job on this! :clapping:

Our volunteer support team has been growing and is the best collection of talent we've ever had. Our faithful mods Dive_Girl, cmt489, terri, scubadadmiami, and diverbrian are always watchful of site happenings and working to keep the site safe and fun for everyone. Our admins tolly, techadmin, fingrabber, shadragon and our newest admin Fordan have enabled us to offer cool new features, give the site an integrated look and feel and help members with problems that inevitably arise with technology. Our Angels and Charlies BeachBunny, Scubapunk, DivZac, DustBowl Diver, Bubbles, ScubaGoddess, Ariesno1, Dejah, hnladue, DiverDeb, Sea Urchin, Starfish Sandy, Fingrabber and Weescot are the spirit of our site and always ready with a friendly hello, welcome, happy birthday or enlightening post! Our Trip Coordinators Fingrabber, Scubapunk, Cat fish, and DiverDeb help ensure you are signed up for a trip properly, help with questions and help with all aspects of trip management! And Dolphin Lover, a_fl_mermaid, DivZac, Dive_Girl, blacklatexozdiver, Platypusman, ScubaGoddess, Scubapunk, pir8, FairyBasslet, Pocohontas, and cmt489 who comprise our newest group of volunteers... our Happy Hour and Event Planners!

And YOU our members...new and old...YOU ARE SINGLEDIVERS.COM!!! Happy Birthday To YOU!!! :cool1:
