Celebrations in Oscars!

May 18, 2012

A quick overview of the topics covered in this article.

Thresher Shark Divers celebrated in style again last night with not one, but three special events.

First up were eight new PADI certifications – everything from PADI Advanced Open Water toEquipment Specialties. As usual, each student – and their hard-working instructor – gets TSDs one-of-a-kind Shark Bite Shot, developed by owner, Trevor, exclusively for our new students.

Bonnie won the TSD ‘Project AWARE Give Sharks a Fighting Chance‘ competition by collecting a staggering 124 petition signatures in one day. She was awarded a special Tshirt…

…. and an amazing pygmy seahorse balloon crafted by one of our talented guests, Michael.

Pygmy Seahorse!
Last, but definitely not least, Bonnie and Jeff completed their PADI Divemaster coursesyesterday, ending with the final snorkel test.
Well done to them both!

Congratulations to Jeff and Bonnie on becoming PADI Divemasters!
