John Caruso
PADI Divemaster #Being Issued
John is a Chemist by day and he'd have to do great bodily harm if we told you more, so... He is a new Divemaster
for us and we are glad to have him. Did I mention he is a "sports nut"? A referee or something?
Richard Olds
PADI MSDT Instructor #49370
Rich used to be a genuine rocket scientist. We are glad to have Rich in the group. He lives all over the map, so you could find him in
the US Virgin Islands teaching at Chris Sawyers Dive Center or in the Carolinas teaching SCUBA or computer classes for Apple, Inc. Once
in awhile, he gets back home to NM to do classes here. And he is our webmaster, so now you know who to visit with about that, too!
Send comment and suggestions to RAOlds@me.com.
Lee Powell
PADI Divemaster #231294
Lee is a high ranking Military guy but we don't know what to call him other than, Sir! So, he does a lot of
great Divemaster stuff and we just let him fire off rockets the rest of the time. Did we mention he collects
very nice Vintage cars and pickups?
Joan Scherer
PADI Divemaster #194815
Joan does retirement plan consulting for a real job. So, if you need to know how to keep your money safe,
she's your source. She is a great Divemaster on a lot of certifications weekends and dive trips. Great
organizer and keeps track of the entire group in the water.
