My vote would be for a boat trip Sat am, Sat afternoon, and Sun am. Personally, I would be coming in after work Friday so I would not make a Happy Hour Friday evening, so - again, just my vote - I'd prefer the cookout/HH on Sat evening. I am talking with someone else who expressed interest above, about buddying up for mix dives - I can commit once we finalize plans.

Actually - now that I have thought about it - another alternative would be a ramp dive Sunday...

We can always mix our divers with other divers to do extra dives... aka sat am, sat pm, sun am etc. Currently SD has reserved a private boat for Sat AM. So if peeps want to do more diving and don't mind mixing it up with other peeps from the shop...then that works too.

I'm sure someone may join you for ramp diving on Sunday but since the shop belongs to OTWDiver and Lake Jocassee Dive Shop is co-sponsoring the event... the official event dives will be boat dives. By the time you rent tanks and lead you have paid for half of the charter. Of course if you live locally and can bring your own then its cheaper to ramp dive but the boat is soooooooooo much nicer! ;)

So we have 1 vote for DIVE DIVE DIVE...anyone else? Again I can keep one of the boats as the official SD dive and sign people up on the other boat slots as people commit to them. That will hopefully be the best of both worlds! kamala

Are there any hotel options nearby? I'm a bit high maintenance and like having my own room, bed and shower.

Also, I like Kate's suggestion of doing the cookout on Saturday. If I make the trip I'm not sure what time I will be able to get out of Birmingham on Friday.

Beth sadly we are roughing it here... the closest hotel is 30 miles/minutes away. However I do have a guest room that you can dibs if you like...you've stayed there before so you are welcome to do so again. :)

There may be one last option... there may be another guest house for rent near us. I can check into that as well when I get back from Dominica.

I hope you can come Beth...

How about this... lets do an informal HH for anyone who is there on Friday and the main cookout and HH on Saturday... that sounds more reasonable anyway! kamala

HEY GANG...

Bummer news from Kate aka Kate P... she has some surgery soon and will most likely not be able to join us. Butch's work plans are not panning out and I'm not sure about anyone else.

Is anyone planning to join us or should be try to reschedule? I need to cancel the house and the boat if we are a 'no go'. On the other hand we don't need a lot of people to do the event and there are probably a lot of peeps locally that hang out at the dive shop that are joining us but have not posted on the site. So let us know and I'll check locally too! -ww

Please keep me informed about this event if you will! I can definitely ride up any weekend except Aug 9th-11th as I will be in Florida that weekend.

For anyone wondering about hotels, I stay at the Jameson Inn Hotel in Seneca, SC when I am up there. It's an easy 30 min drive to Jocassee and it is a good place with a few restaurants nearby. If anyone is coming from the South, let me know and we can carpool or convoy up!

Best wishes to Kate on her surgery!

John

Put me down as interested. I need to start taking some vacation time. Haven't decided where to go yet.
So, if the date(s) are 'convenient' I would be very interested.

Primitive? I haven't done primitive camping in decades. That might give me extra reason to drive up.

I'm working on a possible replacement date... stay tuned!
