Hey Gang...we'll be at BTS again in March 2014 so come and join us at the country's LARGEST SCUBA SHOW March 28-30, 2014!!! It's so good it's worth flying in for! And of course if you do you can get FREE ENTRY into the show for 3 hrs of help either at the show or at the SD Booth! We need your help to be at this show as we could not afford to do it without giving volunteer help to the show in exchange for a cheaper rate! So plan to be there and plan to help where you can!

NOTE: We will also help people find rooms at the show that we can all share the price of. Some members book a room and offer to share and usually SD puts a few rooms on hold as well at the show rate. So let us know if you will want/need a room so we can start planning that as well.

I'm in. My charity sporting clays shoot was cancelled this year so I may be able to work Saturday as well. After just having returned from Chuuk and Palau I'll be wound up.

[Hipshot]

I'm in the process of scheduling what I'll be doing this year at the show...and, of course, the hours will be donated to SD.com.

This weather is giving me an attitude about my latitude

I should be able to do Friday, I tend to meet with clients on weekends so the new maldives trip taking me out of the two weekends before BTS kill my ability to take off another weekend in March. But put me down for all day Friday. I'll check with my buddies too, I'm sure one or two of them would like to help.

[WreckWench]

YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!!

1. Rick we you and the tons of hours you give us! WE NEED THEM!!! (Rick helps us earn the hours we need to give the show)
2. Jerry that would be great to have you for more than 1 day... (Jerry helps in the booth showing people what a fun group we are!)
3. Jose ANY time you can give is greatly appreciated. I am so in debt to you for doing so many trips with us so NEED YOU TO WORK TO PAY FOR THEM!!! Plus Friday is the hardest day when we need more help so hours on Friday are AWESOME!!! Plus we may need help on Thursday since that is the set up day and we REALLY NEED HELP THEN!! (Jose I'll have you help me during the day doing show set up stuff unless you are helping in the evening and then I'll have you help me in the booth!)

[CoralReefer]

Hi Sooze, you are down for one day TBD and of course for Happy Hour (which may have to be upgraded to Ecstasy Hour with you aboard!). Please let us know as soon as you are able to determine which day you would be able to help.

[WreckWench]

Thanks Suzi...now to figure out how to get you to help MORE!!! Kamala

[Dave L]

Wow, is this a new thread on BTS. I thought I had already replied, oh well, this getting old crap is not for the squeamish. I'll be there as usual. I have reservations at the Embassy for Thursday, Friday & Saturday. I can come Wednesday again, like last year, if the staff need me. I'll definitely do Happy Hour. Just have to take the elevator.

Hi Brad,
I should be able to help one day since this is in my backyard - TBD. Depends on the current level of insanity. Probably Saturday or Sunday.

[WreckWench]

Thank you all for all your help! We REALLY need it!!!

I'll be arriving Wed along with Dave L and Sylvia. I'll need a place to stay for Wed and possibly Thursday. Once OMS arrives on Thursday or Friday I will have a place to stay since "Mr Wench" is part of the OMS booth and John aka OMSJohn graciously covers my hotel room via "Mr Wench's" room!

If you are getting a room and want to share it...please let us know. If you just want to share a room please let us know so we can help you all with sharing rooming!
