Western Maryland Dive Club

Welcome to the Western Maryland Dive Club website!

Apparently Mt. Storm in now open to divers once again with some basic rules.

The word is there are three conditions.

1. Divers must pick up their trash and keep the area clean.

2. All divers must use the diver entry area, meaning the step area, and are not to enter the water near the boat dock.

3. Divers are to use as little parking space as possible. If you bring a tarp, or tent or canopy it is to be infront of your vehicle and not beside it. In other words, only one spot per vehicle.

Should be easy enough. Will post more info as provided.

Mt.  Storm has suspended any swimming/diving from the entire boat launch area until further notice.

Here are a couple sites with further information:

From Spotty:

Check out dives are starting.

May 24^th, 25^th & 26^th Let me know which dates are best for you and i well see if we can get a group together.

Going to Mt. Storm. Water temps are still a cool 70 degrees, so wet suits will be needed.

These are just the beginning, and we will have many more.  These dates are not mandatory as this is early and some are going out of town, and they wanted to get certified early.  Don’t feel like you must make these.

We are also planning on going to Lake Rawlings June 23^rd & 24^th, and may add the 25^th.
