I'll be there too. As well as the presentations there will also be a exhibitor area with booths from local dive shops and societies and a raffle with lots of dive toys and other stuff.
This is a also a good opportunity to learn about what GLSPS does and how you can be a part of it. They have many ongoing projects. I look forward to meeting "mnscuba" people.

I had a nice time at the shipwreck and scuba show this Saturday. I would like to thank GPSPS for sponsoring the show and giving mnscuba.com recognition.

I hung out with DanL and Larry during the show. I received great advice from DRE -- good to meet you in person. I also got to meet a couple other people who are on the forum. Here are my short notes from the show:

-- GLSPS seems like a worthy organization to support. Even if you are not an active member, your contributions have a real impact on diving in MN.

-- Got to meet Scott Wemyss and his wife, the new owners of Air Down There Scuba. Real friendly people. I was impressed by the Diving Concepts dry suits they are carrying. Those are well made suits.

-- I talked with Richard from SD&T for a while. They are going to be manufacturing their own aluminum and steel backplates and selling them at a very reasonable price. They will also work with their customers to rig the harness. Richard's cave diving video was definitely one of the highlights of the show.

-- I really really need to get up to Isle Royale.

I have to concur with Jason that Richard from SD&T put on a very nice presentation on cave diving.
