Company description Welcome to the Central Wisconsin Scuba Club! ``The purpose of the Central Wisconsin Scuba club is to bring together people with the common interest of scuba/skin diving; to promote safety in scuba diving, scuba diving activities, education and advancement; as well as to promote diving in the community.``
If you are planning on diving in our area, or if you have any questions regarding diving or dive sites, which we can help you with, please contact us. We look forward to you joining or at least corresponding with our club. We hope that someday we can share the same water with you.
The Central Wisconsin Scuba Club meets once a month to discuss club related activities and issues. During the warmer months, the club sponsors one local dive per week, as well as occassional weekend dives. We also sponsor a summer picnic and events for most major hollidays. Our club is a non-profit group of divers and non-divers alike, who`s goal is to promote scuba and skin diving, diving safety, and community awareness.
Current Club Officials:
• President - Jason Welty - president@divewisconsin.net
• Vice President - Doug Freeman - vp@divewisconsin.net
• Treasurer / Secretary - Barry Thompson - treasurer@divewisconsin.net
• Web Administrator - Dan Blumenstein - blumdan@divewisconsin.net
Club membership is $20 per year and is good for one calendar year (January 1st through December 31st). Club funds will pay for this web site (approximately $140/yr), a summer picnic dive, possibly prizes for contests (such as the halloween underwater pumpkin carving contests, etc.), and help offset the cost of club clothing (silk screening fees).
Dues can be paid at meetings, or they may be sent to the Club Treasurer.

November 13, 2005 - Meeting Summary
Attendees: Betsey W., Jason W., Barry T., Dan B., & Sarah B.
Meeting: The Cedar Post Restaurant was closed when we got there, so we waited until 5:40pm (Meeting was scheduled for 5:30pm), then moved to ElTapatio Restaurant in Plover.
Christmas Party: The club`s last Christmas Party. To be held on Saturday, December 10th (see Calendar for location and times). We will be giving away door prizes and the club will use the remaining money to purchase snacks. Attendees will be required to purchase their own drinks.
Club Future: Due to dwindling attendace and interest the past year, we have decided to terminate the club. We have the website throughout October of 2006 and plan to maintain the website. In the future we will not be meeting as often (possibly every few months). We decided that we will not need club officials for the upcoming year. We will spend the the rest of our club money on food for the Christmas Party and we already have $50 in prizes for the party. If we require any decision making, we can discuss it via e-mail.
Website: The website will be maintained periodically throughout the upcoming year. In lieu of meetings, we are are considering the posibility of giving current members the ability to edit the Calendar page. This would allow everyone to be able to schedule a dive if they wish. The site will be modified to reflect the state of the club. The Meeting Info and Member Pages will be removed and the main page will have a statement about the clubs impending closure.

The boat landings are the best places to access the water, as they provide good parking and easy entry.
