At our July club meeting, the members of the DIVEMASTERS Association were fortunate to have a presentation by David Hunt on the volunteer diving programs at the Virginia Marine Science Museum.
David's presentation described the many different programs at VMSM that divers can volunteer for.
Tanks for fish feeding demonstrations, turtle habitats, seals, and, of course, sharks were just a few of the many interesting topics that David shared with us.
David has been diving for about
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
10 years, doing most of his original dives in the UK and the Mediterranean. David has been in the US for 6 years and has been a volunteer diver at the Museum for around 4 years.
David enjoys underwater photography whenever the opportunity arises, collects nautical antiques, and makes model boats when time permits.
David holds the position of VP of Production and Product Development for Polo Ralph Lauren Leather goods The DIVEMASTERS Association

At our August club meeting, Jim Cook presented us with some of the slides he took on his recent trip to Scuba Club Cozumel Diving Resort in Mexico. The wonderful photographs depicted the abundant marine life at this resort.
Located on the waterfront --one mile south of the downtown Ferry Dock, this is an attractive multi-level building
