Shake A Leg Miami Get Together 12-01-07

ADA and the DiveHeart Organization teamed up to give a presentation on scuba programs available to
disabled divers at the Shake A Leg Miami facility. We had a nice presentation with slides and equipment
for the kids to try on. There was food and drinks and we ended with a nice ride around the bay on
Shake A Leg's new custom 40' power catameran equiped for disabled divers.

Shake A Leg is a non-profit organization designed to educate disabled and
underprivileged children about the aquatic environment and to provide them with many water related activities.

The DiveHeart organization, also non-profit, teaches and certifies able bodied scuba divers to assist disabled divers.
In addition, they train and certify disabled persons to dive. A group of ADA members recently became certified
through DiveHeart to assist disabled divers. This was a very worthwhile experience. Another course will be taught
January 4-6, 2008. If you would like to participate or for more info please call Connie Crowther (305) 445-5545.
