Uber-Fun :) Scooter Dive Here is a short video of the Basic Open Water class we had recently...click the underlined link to enjoy!  Basic Open Water Pool Session Where do we train? We're glad you asked.  We utilize a couple quarry's in Ohio, one is Gilboa and another is Whitestar. Gilboa Quarry http://www.divegilboa.com/ Gilboa Quarry is a 14+ acre limestone quarry with an incredible quantity of large fish...as well as a sunken Grumman aircraft, Sikorsky helicopter, numerous boats and even a very large Christmas tree.  Gilboa is considered to be one of the best places for diving within a 90 minute drive of the store. The cost of diving here is $21. Whitestar http://www.whitestarquarry.com         Diving at White Star Quarry is considered to be the best inland diving that Northern Ohio has to offer.   Whitestar is  a place where we can bring our non-diving friends and family with us, without having to pay to have them sit and watch.  You are welcome to bring friends and family (and even your dog) at NO CHARGE!  This is just one of the things that makes White Star different from other quarries, there is only a fee for Diving and Swimming.  The rate for diving for 2009 is $15 per day and the concession offers Air fills and Enriched Air Nitrox fills during our regular hours.  There are plans for a few new dive sites, a new buoy system, underwater Navigation courses, a buoyancy course and training platforms to practice your skills.  You just have to fill out a pink envelope at one of the self-serve Kiosk and drop the fee in the white receptacle.
