NTD gains attentions on Several Websites


Recently I was approached by a few internet friends to add content to the web, which I have started to do.
The first site is wetpaint, which is a wiki type hosting service. The next one is Wiki itself with a wrecks of Eastern Ontario page for the great wrecks in the Area. Flickr groups for pictures of scuba of Kingston and Ontario. There is several more in the works so I can only update a little at the time the wetpaint one is set up for others to add to as well.

Ontario Diving has gone through a lot of changes in the last little while as well and more exciting changes to come.

Happy Holidays from Spike and the Gang at NTD


Well another year has passed and we are still up and running in Kingston. We want to take a minute to wish you all a good Christmas and Happy New Year and to take a minute to Remember 2 people in the Dive Community that we lost, Doug Smeaton a dear friend and diver from Ottawa and Dave Clemmens from Barrie. I know both will be lost and surely missed by all that dove and knew them.

Please remember if you Drink do not drive we all want to see you on the wrecks and dive sites after the holidays.

We have started a challenge on the popular web forum www.ontariodiving.com for health and fitness to start the winter in the right direction. We also have started making motivational pictures for free use. Here is a sample. We hope you all like them and the Holidays treat you right.
