You've been waiting for it! SCUBA is back for 2010! We have more than a half dozen classes this year, with schedules to fit everyone's lifestyles.
Classes always begin with an orientation, where participants receive their Crew Pack and get prepped for an amazing experience! After the classroom lecture and confined dive classes have been completed, the instructor will help the new divers coordinate the two-day open dive required for certification completion.
Why is RiverWinds the best place to get certified? SO MANY REASONS! Registration is open to the public, and participants need NO prior SCUBA or snorkel experience. ALL gear is included in the cost of the class, a low cost of $301. Compare that to a dive shop! The ONLY additional cost is the check-out dive, which can be done at your convenience in a location of your choosing. No hidden fees here!
Participant swimming requirements include only the ability to tread/float in deep water for ten minutes, and complete a 200m swim with no time limit.
There is a twelve year age minimum, though private lessons available for those ten to eleven.
Check out our schedule below and call 856.251.0990 x103 or email MaskaA@RiverWinds.org to enroll!
