CHAMBER DAY/EVE 2011 - EVENT UPDATE "D" (posted 4/19 -last updated 4/4)

Just about two weeks to go.

Chamber Evening is filling up nicely and, in fact, is running about 25% ahead of last years pace. So don't get left out because seats are starting to become scarce.

Chamber day is a little slow but that also reflects the reality of how boats are filling for "normal" dives nowadays. We realize it's still a tough economy and that people don't dive as much as they used to. but we hope that you'll know this is for a good cause and will take the day off if you can.

Of course, if you can't, there's always the Flying Dutchman. generally we get around 100 people "diving" the Dutchman each year and we're over halfway there. Plus we've just completed the artwork for this year's Dutchman logo (really looks cool) and will be revealing that in the next day or so.

On top of that, we've got t-shirts, posters, and our limited edition print available, not to mention the time-honored tradition of a direct donation through the Chamber Challenge.

So here's where we are as of 10AM on Tuesday, April 19:
