DUI DOG Rally and Demo Days Sept. 26-28

News Posted on June 22, 2008

We have a great diving event to suggest to you for this weekend - Sept. 26, 27 and 28 - at Brownstone Park. The team from Diving Unlimited International (DUI) stops in for the only New England DOG Rally and Demo Tour event.

This is a great opportunity to see what dry diving is all about. Prior to your demo, you’re fitted with the right suit and accessories and you’ll dive with an instructor or divemaster as a personal guide.

Buy tickets in advance at participating dive centers for $8, or they are $13 at the gate. The fee to Brownstone Park is not included, so if you’re not a season pass holder that will be an additional $20. (Yes, the zip lines and wakeboard park will be available - weather dependent.)

This is a unique opportunity to try DUI drysuits, divewear insulation, buoyancy control systems, and weight and trim systems.

You don’t need to be drysuit certified to test dive DUI drysuits. Most everything you’ll need to know about the event is listed in this brochure.

Saturday Dinner & Program at 6 p.m.
This is a good opportunity to talk with dive industry leaders over a great catered dinner. We’ll also feature a fun presentation “The Birth of a Drysuit”. It’ll be a fun evening of great food, friends and prizes…prizes…prizes! Get your tickets early.

Note: The Saturday dinner and program is an additional cost of $8 in advance, or $13 at the door. (Hey, it’s a catered dinner!)

Barbecue Lunch - 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday
This is included in the event ticket price and is served to all participants who are trying a dry suit each day. Plan your dive schedule appropriately, to make sure you�ve had a chance to eat.

We recommend that divers arriving to the event later than 11:30 a.m. check in with DUI and have lunch before drysuit fitting and diving. We have hamburgers (including veggie burgers), hot dogs, potato chips, and drinks.

Family members of participants can enjoy the barbecue lunch for only $5 (plus park admission). Small children are free with a paid adult.

Public Safety Diver Events on Friday
On Friday, a special public safety diver event will be held. Dive teams from around New England have the opportunity to learn what you need to know to be safer in operational diving situations. The day is not limited to just trying out dry suits.

Workshops for public safety dive teams and military divers start at 10 a.m. on Friday. You can pre-register by calling DUI at (800) 325-8439.

You may also contact your local participating dive center if you have any questions. We’ll see you there!
