6/6 Deschutes River Cleanup

From Walt at Central Oregon Diving:

STREAM STEWARSHIP DAY!
DESCHUTES RIVER CLEANUP
JUNE 6TH

COME DIVE WITH CENTRAL OREGON DIVING LLC!
LET'S DIVE THE RIVER AND PICKUP TREASURES!
GREAT LOCAL FUN DIVE!

It is spring again and time to help out with the Deschutes River Cleanup!

When:  6 June 2009  9:30 AM meeting

Where:  We will meet and check in at McKay park at 9:30 for bagels and coffee, sign waivers and registration forms, then we will move to Farewell Bend Park at about 10:00 AM.

Why:  To pick up trash from the bottom, we will drift from Farewell Bend Park down to the Old Mill Landing where the staff from REI will be waiting to celebrate our discoveries!

Who:    Any adventurous certified diver wishing to get in some great drift diving in the river.  Central Oregon Diving will provide FREE AIR to all certified diver volunteers!  SO HOOK UP WITH A BUDDY AND COME ON DOWN.  In the past this has been a "hoot" -- we really find some strange things!

You will need to sign up and register with Central Oregon Diving LLC. You will need to pick up a waiver to complete before diving.  Central Oregon Diving LLC will be open from 8:00 AM to 9:00 AM for people who need to pick up their rental gear.  (Please register and get the paperwork done before Saturday morning of the 6th.) Central Oregon Diving will have a dive buddy check in and check out system for all divers in the water.

We will need some shuttle drivers and vehicles so solicit volunteers!
