Handicapped Scuba Diving Alliance had a great day today.
Philp Khal who has autism, lives in Freehold NJ. He is becoming a great diver. His mom said since he started scuba diving with us he now talks to everyone about his trips to the bottom of the pool. Also, he has shown improvements with his schoolwork and interactions with people.

A new young man, Jacob Kulesa, with Cerebral palsy got some training and then took off like a fish, it was his first session with us. His mother sat pool side and was so surprised and happy he was able to go under the water.

Well, all of the volunteers were so happy to see the organization coming back to where it was before COVID.
Great, loving, cheerful, everyone overjoyed, with our success. Thank you, Bob Horton, Gilroy Parks, Al Raguseo, Kate Barnes, and to the Queen Mother Rebecca Horton

Check Facebook for the day the next session will happen.

Love you great Guys.
Stew

Last of the training face mask course pictures.

The Handicapped Scuba Diving Alliance is making a great comeback after a rough couple of years. So far we have had several SCUBA for Special Needs days and a Wounded Warriors class. We lost several people who helped us out in the water over the years. Where do we get help? How about the HOWELL FIRE DEPT. #1 DIVE TEAM AND WILLIAM FANCHER. We had a little group get together to do some training both Handicapped and Full Face Dive Mask. we got two volunteers so far Kate and Barney. That’s great. See the training pictures. Big thanks to Al and Rebecca for their help. God bless us all. Love you guys. STEW

The Handcapped Scuba Divin Alliance is on its come back.

Great day for all who attended. I just got out of the hospital. I still made it, Love God.

Great information on accessible beaches around the Jersey Shore! 👩‍🦽👨‍🦼🏖️

Which Jersey Shore beaches are most accessible? Check our guide here. Not all beaches are equally accessible. NJ Advance Media compiled information about access at the 44 towns along the Jersey Shore.

We had a great time with some awesome Veterans this weekend out on the water. So much fun we forgot to take pictures! Special thanks to Jay and Julie Robinson for hosting, Jonathan and Bill for taking us out on their boats, Sam and Karen for lending helping hands wherever was needed, the Dykeman familly for sponsoring our corn hole tournament and the Snyder family for sponsoring the Hatchet

Happy Fourth of July!!!

Had a great day in the pool this past Sunday. CJ, Percy, Amanda, and Brody had a blast and are getting better every time. Special thanks to Keith White of KW Scuba Divers for stepping in to help us out while Stew is recovering, Irina and Joe for coming down from NYC, and Eileen, Roy, and Al for doing aLL they do from picking up equipment to organizing and giving our participants an amazing experience. It couldn't be done without all their hard work, help, and support. 🤿 💕
