I have a commitment from an OBPI doctor who specializes in adults to be our guest speaker. I will be going over to Orlando soon to find us accommodations. Registration will be opening up soon so you can reserve your place. If anyone wants to help or give suggestions, please feel free to let me know.....Judy

I would be interested. Kill two birds with one stone.... meet wonderful BPIers like myself and see my cute and adorable niece that live in Orlando. Please keep us updated on details as they come about.

I sent you a message Amanda.

Hi Guys
I am thinking of doing this , Any one interested in learning to snorkel will see you at the pool
Maybe what we post we can show ways to adapt first hand. I know when I try to explain things in my posts it not the same as having that person in front of you
I am thinking if there was time I would contact local dive shops who are Dive Heart members to see about trying out scuba in a pool. Dive Heart instructor teacher people with limitation
One thing we all share is a imagination to try and results to share and show

Deadline for registration of the adult OBPI retreat is August 31st. If you need info please email me.
Tom that is a great idea. I have my PADI license too.But I don't think I can fit it into the schedule.

Hi Judy,
Oh, another scuba diver
I was thinking about 2014??? It would take a lot of planning, I would contact the dive shops that were Dive Heart, they train divers with limitation. I was on a dive ware a diver was in a wheel chair, he did the dive with a Dive Heart,Dive master.
There is a lot of dive shops who train in pools first, ether free or for a small amount to do pool session. It might be a good idea for a future retreat, because we could show other our way to dive one handed,
There sure is a lot here who love the water
I am think about going to the 2014 one.
I am in the middle of selling a house and building in Nc.
I am glad there is other divers out here, You do know why I came up with this
Maybe at the 2013 retreat you might ask who wants to learn to dive
I would try to get this together in 2014 retreat, I really want to go in 2014, The next best thing in posting is showing someone to adapt one handed, there way ,in a two handed world
