  Diving in the Rogue Valley, can be so much fun and rewarding. We have lakes, rivers, the ocean all for us to scuba dive in.  All it takes is a little training and the desire to do it. Scuba Diving is a sport that is not competitive, and is fun for the whole family. 

When you take the rescue diver course you are well on your way.  You will learn how to manage an accident scene, how to get help, how to help someone in distress. 

We have so many wonderful opportunities here in the Rogue Valley, diving just adds one more thing we can do here.  We truly live in paradise but it is nice to know how to handle and emergency if one ever came up.
