SUMMARY:IEC - Saturday\, July 18th
DESCRIPTION:What’s Happening at the Facility: IDC & IEC Sessions\nEver wonder what goes into training the next generation of scuba professionals? \nRight now\, we are running our Instructor Development Course (IDC) and Instructor Evaluation Course (IEC). These sessions aren’t open for registration—our current candidates are already deep in the zone—but we wanted to give a quick behind-the-scenes look at what these dedicated divers are tackling. \nThe Path to Becoming an Instructor\nReaching the IDC/IEC level takes immense commitment\, sharp focus\, and a lot of logged time underwater. \n\nThe IDC is where experienced divers transition into educators. It focuses on mastering dive theory\, learning how to deliver crisp classroom presentations\, and perfecting the art of teaching skills in both confined and open water.\nThe IEC is the final evaluation phase. This is the ultimate test where an independent evaluator assesses the candidates to ensure their teaching ability\, rescue skills\, and safety standards are absolutely flawless.\n\nIt is rigorous\, challenging\, and incredibly rewarding. \nWhy We Train SDI Instructors\nWe choose to train instructors through Scuba Diving International (SDI) because we believe it creates the best educators in the industry. \nSDI revolutionized dive training by introducing the “Instructor Led” philosophy. Instead of forcing students into a rigid\, cookie-cutter box\, SDI empowers its instructors to adapt courses to the local environment and the unique needs of individual students. It prioritizes practical\, real-world diving skills—like teaching buoyancy and trim right from day one—rather than outdated\, knees-on-the-bottom drills. \nBeing an SDI Instructor means having the flexibility to teach creatively\, the support of a forward-thinking organization\, and the privilege of minting confident\, capable\, and safe divers. \nHuge respect to our candidates putting in the work right now to earn their stripes. Stay tuned as they close in on the finish line!

SUMMARY:Sunday Saltwater Session
DESCRIPTION:Sunday Saltwater Session: Meet Up at Sunrise! \nLet’s wrap up July with a classic Pacific Northwest Sunday on the water. On Sunday\, July 26th\, the Spartan Dive Team is hosting a casual\, “meet us there” dive day at the Sunrise Dive Park on the Hood Canal. \nUnlike our tight-timeline shop runs\, this day is entirely self-paced. There’s no early morning convoy leaving the shop—just pack up your rig\, drive up when you like\, and meet the crew on the beach. Drop in for a single deep wall dive\, or stick around all day to log as many splashes as your thermal layers and gas supply will allow. When you’re done\, you can pack up and head straight back to your own castle at your own leisure. \nHow to Join the Crew:\n\nWhere: Sunrise Resort and Motel in Hoodsport.\nWhen: Sunday\, July 26th. The team will be active on the property throughout the day.\nThe Plan: Show up\, coordinate with the team on the beach for buddy pairs\, splash into the park\, and dive on your own schedule.\n\nBefore hitting the road\, make sure to read through our Spartan Sunrise Page for a complete breakdown of the park’s underwater layout\, depths\, and site expectations. \nLogistics & On-Site Amenities:\nAll day-use access and air logistics are handled directly through the resort property. Please note that Washington State and local sales taxes are added to all baseline resort rates\, and hot showers are not yet available on site. \n\nDay-Use Passes: $20 per person for full access to the beach\, picnic areas\, BBQs\, and the resort hot tub for post-dive decompression.\nCylinder Fills: $10 per tank (Air) via the resort’s fast on-site fill station.\nSite Gear Infrastructure: Take full advantage of the dedicated gear rinse basins and secure suit drying room between your splashes.\n\nToss your heavy gloves and drysuit undergarments in the truck\, and let’s squeeze the last bit of juice out of July’s diving calendar. See you on the beach!
