Patowmack Divers is a social group of people with a common interest: SCUBA DIVING!! Our members are male and female, from 20s to mid 70s. Our diving experience ranges from recently certified to retired instructors from warm water photographers, to deep wreck technical divers, and cave divers.
Patowmack Divers arranges several dive trips per year to locations off Virginia and Maryland seashores, Outer Banks, NC, and other great dive sites in the United States, the Caribbean, and beyond. Group purchasing power allows us to enjoy discounts on charters, rentals, and accommodations. We are also active in preservation, research, and environmental protection. We take full advantage of the aquatic expertise in the DC metro area for speakers at our meetings, including such diverse topics as Underwater Archeology, Reef Ecology, Treasure Hunting Expeditions, and Aquarium setup and operations.
We also have an annual Pasta Pigout to enjoy fresh pasta, good sauce, good wine, and good conversation.
The short answer is anywhere. Club dive trips can be two divers or a dozen. Our recent dive trips include local quarries, West Palm Beach, Cozumel, Puerto Rico, Belize, St. Vincent, Palau, Sidapan, the Philipines, and Indonesia.
Our world-notorious Pasta Pig-Out will be on Saturday, March 7 for club members in good standing (and their guests).
This jolly event, the lowest form of dinner party, will be held (in person, of course) at our president's secret lair. Sign up to bring an Italian dish (and your wine of choice, if you wish), and a good time will be had by all.
Our March meeting will be on the first Monday, March 2, as usual.
Those who wish to join in person can do so at Mylo's Restaurant. As we have done before, we will have a Zoom space operating for joining virtually. We will cover club business at ~7:30 PM (or sometime after folks eat).
After club business, we will have a discussion on dive operator safety. Do you know how to tell whether a dive operator had adequate safety protocols in place? Come tell us! Of course, we have our own ideas for discussion, but we'd love to hear your views, too.
Our February meeting will be on the first Monday, February 2, as usual.
Those who wish to join in person can do so at Mylo's Restaurant. As we have done before, we will have a Zoom space operating for joining virtually. We will cover club business at ~7:30 PM (or sometime after folks eat).
After club business, we will have a presentation from Kris and Dain Wetterstrand on their on-land adventures in Iceland.
Our January meeting will be on the first Monday, January 5, as usual.
Those who wish to join in person can do so at Mylo's Restaurant. As we have done before, we will have a Zoom space operating for joining virtually. We will cover club business at ~7:30 PM (or sometime after folks eat).
After club business, we will have a presentation from Liz Clough about her tip to Raja Ampat.
Patowmack Divers meets the first Monday of the month, unless it's a federal holiday, in which case we will select a meeting date to work with club members and Mylo's.
We are now holding hybrid meetings giving divers the option of joining us in person at Mylo's Grill (6238 Old Dominion Dr., McLean, VA 22101) or on Zoom We a social half hour starting at 7:00 pm. This is a chance to talk, order drinks and food, etc. The meeting starts with club business at 7:30. Our meetings usually end between 9:00 and 9:30 pm.
