This Veteran’s Day, Wednesday November 11, join us for a fun filled day of diving with a mission.  SunDiver Charters have agreed to donate $100 from each booking to go towards The Disabled Veterans SCUBA Project.  Spots are $125 for a 3-tank dive around Catalina Island.

The Disabled Veterans SCUBA Project provides SCUBA instruction to paralyzed veterans and veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Traumatic Brain Injuries (signature wound of Iraq & Afghanistan) and poly-trauma (multiple injuries). SCUBA Diving has shown itself to be great therapy for these veterans.  Dan, Richard, Dr. Bill and Michigan Chris have all taken the HSA training.  Their report can be found here.

Check the message board for the latest information on this event.  If you have the day off, this is a great way to give back.
