2011 Underwater Festival draws to a close…
Today is the last day that competition entries can be sent in for Perth Scuba’s fringe event underwater photography competition. Entries close at 5pm and will be judged before this evening’s closing event. With prizes up for grabs ranging from Travel Vouchers to BCD’s and regulators, plus a day with Shannon Conway, there are plenty of reasons to get your photos in! Remember there is a category for just having an entry in so you don’t have to be a “Shannon Conway” to win a great prize.
Tonight at 6.30pm we will be presenting the finalists of the entries and giving away the great prizes on offer. Email your entries to [email protected] before 5pm today!!!
The competition for the overall underwater festival has been strong and while Perth metro area conditions weren’t the best, divers still managed to come up with some fantastic entries. We wish them all well in the major competition.
Aussie Fundraiser – Beach & Underwater Cleanup
Don’t forget this Sunday at 9am is the official clean up day for Project Aware at Fishing Boat Harbour. We need as many helpers as we can get to clean up the harbour.
We will also have the arrival of Tommy and Allan who are riding their motor bikes aroundAustraliadoing clean ups and raising money for Project AWARE on their way. They are almost on their final leg and are looking forward to catching up with everyone on the day.
We will be meeting at 9.00am outside Cicerello’s at Fishing Boat Harbour in Fremantle. If you would like to help out, call the store on 94554448 and let us know you’ll be there. Bring your dive gear (if you’re diving), sturdy gloves to protect your hands & a catch bag if you have one. Need gear? Drop by the store on Saturday and we’ll help you out. All money raised from gear hired for the cleanup will be donated to the Aussie Fundraiser this weekend!
We will be having a sausage sizzle after the event and remember – it’s a fund raising event and we’ve got some great prizes to win for the raffle.
See you there!
