The Niagara Divers' Association  We Have It All!!



The Niagara Divers' Association (NDA) was founded in 1988 and currently has about 50 members from around the Niagara Region (Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, Canada). We have one of the most ambitious dive schedules in Ontario. Just about every weekend from Mid-May to the end of September, we're somewhere in the Southern Great Lakes. We cater to all levels of divers, and are one of the very few clubs that offers challenging diving to even the most advanced of divers. From Novice to Trimix, we have something for everyone. In the spring, we host our annual SHIPWRECKS Symposium.

SHIPWRECKS/2012

"Shipwrecks/2012"was held on Saturday, March 31, 2012. We had approximately 550 people in attendance. For 2012, we had 138 door prizes donated ($8486.00 value) which are now listed on the web site along with the contributors and winners' names.

The Fort Erie Underwater Recovery Unit once again held a 50/50 draw with proceeds going to the Lake Erie (Eastern Basin) Mooring Project.  A total of $861.00 was raised for the project and three prizes of $430.50 / $258.30 / $172.20 given out. 

An additional $240 was raised through the sale of "Woame Posters" which were donated by Les Pullen.

Our thanks to the FEURU and Les for their contributions to the Mooring Project.

 

CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS- SHIPWRECKS/2013

We are now in the planning stages for our 19th annual one-day symposium on shipwrecks, Shipwrecks/2013 . We are requesting presentations in either of 2 categories:

Primary presentations may be up to 45 minutes in length, but most are approximately 20 - 25 minutes, with additional time allotted for question and answer.  Live commentary is preferred to "canned" packages.

Short, 5 minute maximum, presentations (primarily to introduce new topics or presenters) are also being requested.

All presentations should be shipwreck-related and we try for an even split between recreational and technical topics.

Please forward a brief overview of your presentation and a brief biographical sketch to the Shipwrecks Committee at; InfoShipwrec

 

2011 Dive For a Cure

The second annual NDA Dive for a Cure event was held  October 16, 2011 at the Welland Scuba Park. There were approximately 250 people in attendance, including 93 registered divers who took part in both the scavenger hunt and pumpkin-carving dives.  This year, $8500 was raised and donated to the Canadian Cancer Society through registrations, donations, food sales, etc. This brings our two year total to $16,000. Our third annual Dive for a Cure event is scheduled for September 30, 2012.
