8th Annual Underwater Pumpkin Carving and Chili Cookoff

Its that time of year again, the leaves are turning, the smell of spices are in the air, chili recipes are being dusted off, and people in wetsuits are roaming the stores looking for pumpkins!
That's right, its time for our Annual Underwater Pumpkin Carving, and Chili cook-off (don't worry, the chili is cooked above water) 

Join us for the festivities on October 27th from noon - 3pm at Clear Spring Scuba park.  Bring your best chili, and for you divers we will again have both the anything goes category, and dive knife only.

We look forward to seeing you there!
