The South Western Ontario Diver's Association (SWODA) is a dive club based out of London, Ontario and has been connecting divers and getting them in the water since 1986. Our membership includes divers of all sorts from the very experienced tech diver to the recently-certified diver. We pride ourselves on this diversity and offer dive trips that fit all levels of diving. Diving is what you want to do, and that is our main objective!

SWODA Trip Night

As previously advertised, we are having our annual Trip Night tomorrow night!

We will be hosting trip night at Palasad South (141 Pine Valley Boulevard) in London.

We are making a small change to the start time. We will be starting Trip Night at 6:30pm instead of 7:00pm.

No RSVP required!

Hope to see you there!

A Night At The Movies!

SWODA's taking a night out at the movies! Come check out Revolution: The latest documentary by filmmaker, and fellow diver, Rob Stewart, creator of Sharkwater. Meet up with members of SWODA at 7:15pm inside the Silvercity Cinemas at Masonville Place. This event is open to anyone, SWODA Members and Non-Members alike, so come out and enjoy a night with SWODA and Revolution!

Open Letters to the Ice Floe Racers of SWODA & EUC

From Marianne Collins, Etobicoke Underwater Club, to the Pirates Ice Floe Racers:

I would like to thank Mar Smith and Derek Causarano and the rest of the SWODA team for proposing that we join the SWODA and the EUC Ice Floe teams and for guiding the combined Pirates with Puppies team to a third place victory at the 2013 Ice Floe race. Without SWODA's invitation we wouldn't have even had a chance to compete when we were short on racers. And better yet, the spirit of cooperation earned us the Best Club Participation award.

I call it a win win! Go Pirates!

From Derek Causarano, South Western Ontario Divers Association, to the Puppies Ice Floe Racers:

I would like to thank Marianne Collins, Bruce Beattie and the rest of the EUC team for joining forces with us in this year's Ice Floe Races. We accomplished something that the rest of the teams did not think we could: We competed. More importantly though, we accomplished exactly what we set out to do: We fought hard, met great people and had a fun time doing it! For us, that is what the Ice Floe Races are all about.

Definitely win win! Go Puppies! Arf Arf!

Derek Causarano
