Davin's Testimonial

I'll go ahead and join in the chorus.

I just want to let each of you know how fantastic each of you are. I am always amazed at how many exciting and positive people we have amongst us. You are each amazing people that I am thankful for the chance to spend time with. As Kyle quoted me, it is amazing how much fun we have together for only spending one week a year as a group, and we always have great new additions to the crowd each year to fill the spots of others who aren't able to make it.

I always tell people that the Eels is a dive club but that it has nothing to do with the diving. We all get a chance to discover something about ourselves and each other--we just happen to get a chance to go scuba diving at the same time. We learn to do things that we didn't know we could do before. I remember the first dive when I assisted Chris Hyatt underwater. I was completely intimidated but learned to dive with others in a different way, and am a far better diver and person for the experiences. I am always amazed at the difference that the Eels can make in people's lives through scuba diving of all things.

I always have a blast on each of the Eels trip, and this one was no exception. I put it up there as one of the two best Eels trip. It is there with the New Year's trip to Cayman Brac. That trip gets bonus points for having the mayor of the island singing in the band for the New Year's party!

So what's the plan for the picture party?
