Event Programme

Thank for you deciding to attend Scuba Santas 2009, what follows is a programme for the day with approximate timing:

8:30am: Vobster Quay open gates to hordes of waiting, eager scuba santas
9:00am: Registration begins at the Scuba Santas desk in the marquee
- All divers must register to be part of the world record count
- Donations can be made at the desk also, please leave contact details to be entered into the prize draw
9:50am: Official Welcome
- Welcome to all divers from Organisers of Scuba Santas and Tim Clements of Vobster Quay
- Reminder of Record Rules and Timing of the day
- Official photographs, interviews with media
- Time to make donations!
10:25am: Divers begin entering the water
- Please be as efficient as possible in entering the water whilst remaining safe. We have lots of divers to get in the water for the record, delay will mean that some of the first divers will otherwise be having a very long, cold dive
- First divers in expect dive time of approximately 40 – 45 minutes
- Please ensure that you are counted into the water by our organisers
10:50am: Timing for world record officially begins
11:00am: Record timing ends
11:15am: Divers clear of the water
12:00pm: Warm cups of tea, laughter, photograph reviews, complaints about how cold it is!
2:00pm: A second scuba santas dive for those brave enough, and those who are just plain silly!!!
