(DiverWire) Building upon the success of two prior events (over 8000+dives in Texas in 2009 and 2010), the 2011 Dive Around Texas promotion is expected to draw a record crowd of active diving enthusiasts. A large group of Retailers and Sales Reps recently met in San Marcos to finalize the details for the 2011 Challenge.
It’s easy to participate – all you have to do is dive! Divers are encouraged to sign up with their participating DAT Dive Retailers for $25 and receive an event t-shirt. Family Scuba Center in Midland, Texas even launched a midnight New Year’s Eve dive at Valhalla Missile Silo to allow their customers to start 2011 underwater! Mark Hannifin of Family Scuba Center says, “It’s never too early to enjoy diving in Texas and it’s never too late to start. Family Scuba Center will host several dive dates that are now on the DAT Facebook page.”
Upon completion of the minimum of 12 dives in 4 locations, participants in the promotion return a Dive Log to be officially stamped by the Retailer. The more dives, the more chances to win great prizes on Recognition Day, Oct. 1st, 2011 in San Marcos. The complete rules are at www.divearoundtexas.com. Blackbeard’s Dive Cruises has once again offered the Grand Prize. Beth Oliveira of Blackbeard’s said “Last year’s event increased Texas Dive Travel by 20% to the Bahamas for us! We applaud your efforts.”
