Classes
Beginning Openwater Classes
Divepoint now offers a weekend openwater certification class, (not a resort course)
this is an accelerated class. This course requires you to study the openwater book
along with the videos that are normally viewed in class. This
class begins on a Friday afternoon and finishes on a Sunday afternoon. You are
still required to take the four-openwater certifications dives after completing
the class. Divepoint will continue to offer the standard six-week and three-week
classes for those who do not want to rush. The cost for the complete certification
is $240.

Our Family
This summer you will notice our children in the store more often.
Erik is 10 and is now a certified diver. Ahna is 8 and is patiently
waiting for that magic age when she can officially say she is a diver.
Both kids are helping us at the store now, but we can’t forget
“Tikka the Terrible” she helps too. Tikka is calming down a
little bit each month and is going to be a good addition to the
dive shop.
Local Dive Club
Don’t forget to check out Central Wisconsin Dive Club’s
web site at www.divewisconsin.net,
