Welcome to the Club!
Have you ever wanted to do something REALLY adventurous - explore new places, discover amazing things, or do something that not many people have done before? Well, not too long ago, only adults or teenagers could scuba dive...but that was then, and THIS is NOW!
|
Now, there's Scuba Rangers - a "way cool" club for all 8 to 12 year olds who enjoy water activities and want to save the marine environment.
 |
With Scuba Rangers, you can scuba dive in a pool with real diving equipment, play games under water, and meet new friends as adventurous as you.
Alpha Dive and Kayak is the home of the Scuba Rangers of Powell River. Scuba Rangers is a pool-only Scuba Club and is limited to only 6 children per class or 10 children per specialty course. All Scuba Ranger Instructors have completed background checks, are experienced divers, and are specially trained to work with children. |
