[PSUBS-MAILIST] 2016 Convention?

[T Novak via Personal_Submersibles]

With respect to an alternative idea, how about the west coast this year?  How many subs could attend a convention in Redding, CA with a dive in Whiskeytown Lake or Lake Shasta?  Redding has a dive shop.  Can David Colombo recommend a better lake in California, Oregon, Nevada, or ?  Is Clear Lake California a clear lake?  Other thoughts?

Eeek, I've organized a PSUBS convention once before and I'm not sure I quite want to be the lead. Particularly this year which is going to be particularly hectic. What I'd really like is to speak to our contacts over there and see what can be lined up in terms of specific facilities and help, but leave someone else the pleasure of lining up the speakers and sub owners, or the finances. 

 

Al (Secor), if you're reading this... I've done two dive trips there but you're local. Would you have any specific recommendations as far as a site? Some of the Great Lakes subs likely to attend do not launch easily on a ramp and might even need to be craned in, and a launch site that implied minimal towing would also be a huge plus. I'm pretty sure we can line up surface support, but we could have a good number of subs. Please let us know any suggestions. Once I've heard from you my next step would be to sound out our friends at the Finger Lakes Underwater Preservation Assn.

 

Before even starting down that path, are there any alternative ideas? I think Jon makes the call, after weighing whatever ideas are out there. 

 

 

Thanks,


Alec

Sounds good to me. Alec, would you take charge and I and Steve can help since you already know everything at Lake Seneca?

 

Thanks,

Scott

Scott/All, I would be willing to be part of a team to help organize. I should have bandwidth to assist with a few assignments. If we confirm a core team early we can divide the work load and get an early start. Looks like we already have some subs and a reasonable date.

Thanks,
Steve
