YEAR
END DIVE, PICNIC AND RAFFLE: SATURDAY, OCTOBER
31
We return to the Blue
Heron Bridge dive site at Phil Foster Park in Riviera
Beach for our annual end-of-season event. This
site is world-famous, named the Best Shore Dive in
the U.S. by Scuba Diving Magazine. There is so
much to see here just a flat, easy walk from
shore. Even though this is the Intracoastal
Waterway and not the ocean, swift currents moving
through daily ensure the marine life is always
varied and abundant. Seas are normally calm and
clear. We have seen goliath groupers, manatees,
bait balls of silversides, huge yellow cushion
starfish, 7-armed starfish, batfish, frogfish,
octopus, eels, seahorses, numerous crabs and
abundant schools of tropical fish including
Atlantic spadefish.
The fun begins at
8:00 a.m. when divers meet by the picnic tables in
the grassy area between the blue awning over the
playground and the restrooms. At 12:00 noon we’ll
fire up the grill for hamburgers, hot dogs, salads
and all the fixin’s. The event will conclude with
a raffle of fabulous dive-related prizes. Feel
free to also bring used dive gear to buy, sell or
swap!
Cost of
the BBQ is only $10. Click the button to
RSVP and pay in advance no later than October
26.
