Lake Side News
The month of March 2009 is to honor Carl Breashear by Lake Rawlings. Also, the Black Dolphin Divers of Richmond, an affiliate club of the National Association of Black Scuba Divers, is taking part in this DREAM TO DIVE: The Life of Navy Master Diver Carl Brashear (which is now on exhibit at Nauticus through June 7, 2009) by sponsoring the speaker, Mr Christopher T. Johnson.
You are invited to join us at Nauticus
on Saturday, March 14, 2009 at 2:00
p.m. in Norfolk to hear the diving
experiences of Chris Johnson when
he was a naval officer assigned to
the Grasp. It is expected to be fun
and informative. The event is free,
but you must RSVP by calling
757-664-1026 to register to attend.
We are most proud to announce that Mr. Johnson is a graduate of Hampton University, where he enrolled in the university scuba diving program to help launch his career in the Navy. As a student and midshipman, Mr. Johnson signed up for every scuba diving trip planned by the HU Area of Aquatics. And I am equally proud to say that I was Mr. Johnson's scuba instructor.
Lake Rawlings continues to improve services and facilities. Our newest initiative is to place shelters throughout the park. If you or your organization are always packing the canopy and tarp for a ground cover we may have a solution. We are installing carports with a concrete base and tables in many areas. If this sounds like something you would like to get involved in, something you would like to be able to reserve for your trip so that you need not be up at the crack
of dawn to reserve your spot then download
the attached flyer or give us a call.
