Polar Bear Club

Our first Polar Bear Club dive of the season took place this past Sunday, November 22nd. It was a fantastic dive, with visibility around 30 feet. Water temp was 46 degrees, and the air temp was in the low 50s with fog and off-and-on mist.

Divers enjoyed seeing several crappie and largemouth bass. One bass was spotted that really got hearts pumping, as it was a granddaddy-sized fish. A walleye was also seen navigating the depths.

If you are a certified diver and you have a drysuit, we hope you'll join us for our next dive! Stay tuned to our website, http://www.huskerdivers.com/, our Facebook page, or call the store at 402-420-6338 to learn when we're planning the next outing. We hope to see you there!

Polar Bear Club: Don't Hang up Your Fins Just Because it's Cold Outside!

You don't have to hang up your fins for the winter just because it's cold outside!

Certified divers are encouraged to join the Polar Bear Club for a dive on Sunday, November 22nd at 11 a.m. at Broadfoot Lake near Kearney. Due to scheduling conflicts, we didn't get to carve pumpkins in October, so if you'd like to carve a pumpkin, bring one along for this dive! Underwater pumpkin carving is fun, plus it's a hoot to be able to tell your coworkers on Monday that you carved a pumpkin underwater over the weekend.

To become a full-fledged member of the Polar Bear Club, you need to do four dives with the Polar Bears. Once you've met that goal, you'll be able to wear the coveted Polar Bear Club t-shirt and you'll get your name on the Polar Bear Club plaque on the dive shop wall!

Drysuit classes are available over the winter, so if you've been thinking about learning to dive dry, now's your chance. You'll need to pick up the book and DVD in the store. The class consists of the book/DVD, done at home, a pool session, and two open water dives.
