I had an emergency and couldn't stay all day, but I heard there were around 400 divers all weekend. That's much less than usual.

 Saturday and Sunday was business as usual I would estimate 200 on Saturday and about 150 on Sunday. Monday was slow but that is usual. We got about 75 entries for our promotion with Blackbeards Cruise.

 By the way Susie Murphy won the cruise and my dog Maggie ate her enrtry card with the contact info on it. Can anyone have her contact me or forward her info? It would be appreciated. Called Tina and she looked up her waiver but there was no contact info included. I think she may be affiliated with Scuba Emporium.
