I'd like to take it too, but that is the first day of our Tech Diving Expedition. Gone for a week in the middle of no where.

Hey, guys! Thanks for your interest! Yes, I will definitely be doing another class in the near future. If I don't get enough interest in the women's class, I will also open that date up and make it co-ed (August 19). I should also be posting one in the Fall.

Looking at my calendar, I have the weekends of Sept 23 or Sept 30 open. Will either of those dates work for you guys? Otherwise, we're looking at October.

So far, it's looking like September 23, or I may open up the August 19 date. Let me know if you're interested in either date.

Either one works for me. So which ever you get more response for is fine. If everyone gives an answer such as mine.... I'd pick.... Sept 23rd for a chance at it being a little cooler than Aug 19th.

Thanks so much for your interest and feedback! We had a great class today, as hot as it was. (Special thanks to Rick for hosting!) A good time was had by all, everyone learned a lot and improved their skills, and everyone was asking when the next class is going to be!

I've opened up August 19 for men and women, and right now, it's looking like the Sept. date will be 23rd. I'll give it a few more days as I'm waiting on a few more responses.

Thanks, guys! : )

Thanks, Rick! I had a blast teaching it,:fa: and Rick's right. The guys were great! They told me to let 'em have it, so I did! Of course, I found myself sounding just a little like Deputy
:di: a few times, but without the colorful metaphors! hehe I guess all that training and RSO'ing rubs off! (and you thought I wasn't listening, Dep! lol) Oh, by the way, Rick, thanks for the special lunch you brought me! :shock:

Seriously though, thanks to all who participated for a great class!

Okay guys, it's looking like August 19 and Sept 23. I've already opened August 19 to men and women. I'll also be posting Sept 23, so take your pick. You can attend either one.

Thanks!
