About the Event & Location
Your DUI event ticket, which is $5 if purchased in advance or $10 on-site, entitles you to participate in all aspects of the demos, enjoy a barbecue lunch, and participate in the raffle. Admission to the park is $4/vehicle for parking. You can find more information about the area at www.eurekasprings.com. Beaver Lake is located near Rogers, AR.

All activities will begin at 9am on Saturday and Sunday. When you reach the location, you will see two large tents. The tents will protect us from the weather so, come rain or shine, we’ll be diving! Air fills & rental dive gear are available at a dive center only 1 mile away.

 
Schedule for the Day
 
Registration and Test Dives: 9am to 5pm Saturday and 9am-4pm Sunday
Registration will begin at 9am on Saturday. All divers will need to show your certification card at the facility. You will also need to complete a liability release form and rental form and we will ask that a credit card or drivers license be held as a deposit. A parent or guardian who can sign the appropriate forms must accompany participants under 18. These forms are available from your local dealer or on-line so you can fill them out in advance if you like.

Test Dives will be conducted Saturday until 5pm and Sunday until 4pm. All equipment must be returned at that time. Divers must enter the water by 4pm on Saturday and 3pm on Sunday to ensure we have the equipment back in time.

Prior to the demo, each diver will be fitted with the appropriate drysuit and other equipment. Once you are dressed and ready to dive, you will check in with the divemaster in charge of the dive deck who will assign you an instructor or divemaster as a guide. As soon as there are 2-3 people ready to go in the water, an experienced drysuit diver or instructor will escort you on your dive. If you are a certified drysuit diver, you are welcome to dive on your own. You can do as many dives as you wish. With numerous suits there usually is little wait, though you may need to wait a short time for the specific type of drysuit you want.

 
Barbecue Lunch: 11am to 2pm
This is included in the event ticket price and is served to all participants from 11am –2pm. Please plan your dive schedule appropriately. Family members of participants can enjoy the barbecue lunch for only $5. Small children are free with a paid adult.
 
“How to” Seminars
Informative and fun “How to” seminars will be taught throughout the weekend. Our most popular seminar is DUI Field Repair Seminar. We will demonstrate seal replacement, finding and patching holes, changing valves and overall tips on maintaining drysuits. Space is limited and pre-registration is recommended. To register contact DUI Customer Service directly at CustomerService@DUI-Online.com or 800.325.8439. Other seminars on photography will be offered by our partner, SeaLife® ReefMaster® cameras. A schedule with more detailed information will be posted in the tent.

Underwater Digital Cameras from SeaLife

Demos will also be held Saturday and Sunday and will be available for all participating divers. This is a great activity for DOGs who bring friends to try DUI products. Your images will be copied onto a CD (for FREE!) so you can take home and share with friends and family.

Treasure Hunt

Keep your eyes out for golf balls under water. The more you collect, the better your prize!

Saturday Evening Dinner & Program: Saturday 6pm

This is a great opportunity to talk with dive industry leaders, have a great dinner and talk diving! Dick Long will give a fun presentation on DUI and some of the exciting adventures you can have with your DUI drysuit. The dinner will be held at the “Barn” on Holiday Island. Directions will be available at the registration table. The entire evening is only $5 per person for tickets purchased in advance or $10 per person if ticket is purchased on-site.

 
Special Opportunities for DOGs
DOGs who bring a friend with them to test dive DUI products will receive a FREE DUI Slap Strap as well as a Test Diver hat when they present their DUI equipment and event ticket.
 
Door Prizes for All Participants
  • All divers who complete the demo will get a commemorative DUI TEST DIVER hat and have their names entered into a drawing for more prizes.
  • New this year! All participants including staff are entered to win dive trips donated by dive operations around the world. We will give away smaller prizes at each event with the grand prizes of free trips with the Nautilus Explorer and Optiquatics being given away at the end of the year.
 
Things to Bring
  • Basic scuba equipment including mask, snorkel, open heel fins, regulator with octopus and gauges, tank, weights, BCD, and cold water hood and gloves. We will have over 90 drysuits available so we should have plenty for all. We will have larger fins available in case your fins do not fit the drysuit boots. We also have DUI hoods, BCS Systems and Weight & Trim systems available for demo. You will need to supply your own weights or rent them from a nearby dive store.
  • While you are welcome to bring undergarments of your own, we will have Polartech® PowerStretch®, Thinsulate™, Thinsulate™ Ultra, Thinsulate™ LiteLoft™ and ActionWear garments to test dive as well as booties to wear on your feet under the drysuit.
  • Diver certification card and credit card for deposit
  • Wear clothing appropriate for the weather and bring your own favorite snacks, drinks, etc.
  • Cameras are a great idea. We will be happy to take pictures of you and your friends.
