Hey, Dive shops around Bemidji area...

[josh b.]

Hey guys, my name is Josh and I currently work at GUDC.  I wanted to know what sort of diving, and what your guys' shop(s) look like up towards Bemidji.  Bemidji State U. is one of the colleges that I am looking at and I wanted to see what the dive shops are like up there and possible job opportunities if/when I move up there in the fall of '08.


Thanks guys,
Josh at GUDC

Hi Josh,

I'm sure by now you've already found "The Dive Depot" in Bemidji ().

I've been in there a couple times for air while diving Long Lake by Itasca park.  They are a PADI shop, they have a dive schedule on their site for the "fun dives" they have over the summer.  I found them late in the summer and was not able to make it over there (2 1/2 hours away from me) for any of their dives.  But next summer I'll try and make it over there for some extra diving.

I'd check out their website and maybe talk with a couple of them (phone or email).

I'm sure someone else on the board has been in their shop, or dove with them.
