Today's Club
We meet the last Thursday of each month (except
November - 3rd Thursday and Decembe - no meeting) at Marco Polo's on Burnside Ave. in East Hartford at 7:30 PM.
Our Bylaws allow a maximum of 30 active members, and new applications are always under review. Divers become 'Provisional' members for a minimum of one year, and dependent upon their participation in Club activities and meeting attendance, are reviewed for Full Member status. The Club must vote to fill a Full Member Slot. Membership positions are available.
Wreck Diving, Tek Diving, and Discovery Diving are at the fore-front of the Club's activities.
The Gillmen have worked with the U. S. Navy, Coast Guard, Conn. State Police, various Local Police Depts., the State's Archaeologist Office and Army on joint projects. We have helped various Police Departments start & setup their own dive teams. We have assisted 'Diver's Down' in videos about 'Diving the Graveyard of the Atlantic' and Lake George, New York.
