January 1st Weekend
Update: Monday 5th of January 2010
We have now completed our first two snorkels last weekend with 18 members out New Years Day and 22 members snorkelling on the Sunday. Our 3rd snorkel will take place this Sunday the 10th of January, meeting again at Sandycove, Dun Laoghaire at 11.30am on Sunday morning. The weather while cold is looking good as the forecast is for northerly force 3-4 winds at the later half of the week.
Could everyone bring any spare equipment that they might have to loan any trainees that might need them. Spare gloves, weightbelt, lead weights, wetsuits could all help get someone a snorkel and started on their diving adventures with Naas Sub-Aqua Club.
Trainee Lectures
The first set of Trainee lectures will take place on Sunday the 17th of January 2010, starting at 2pm in Lawlar's Hotel, Naas. It is extremely important that you make all of these lectures and that they are signed off.
Pool Training
We will resume pool training at 7.45pm on Thursday 14th of January 2010 (Not January 7th as previously stated)
