2011 Swap Prize Winners
There are some problems that are good problems – like: notifying all prize winners about the prizes they have won. And it is even better as we have some good prizes to notify you about - a new aluminum 80 scuba tank and a TUSA reg are among the prizes still to be claimed.
All raffle prizes are now claimed, and the winners of the unclaimed door prizes were sent emails based on the contact information on the ballots; the ones who did not put their emails on the ballot or whose emails bounced back will receive the notification by regular mail (snail-mail).

2011 Swap is over
We have put behind us 20 Scuba Swaps - and Anthony, Bill and Ro can say it literally: they've volunteered at each and every one of them. Thank you, guys!
More to come when we rest a bit, check out the tweets for more pictures...
Welcome to the 2011 Swap - the Big 20!
Are you excited? We are excited. Let us do it!
Ready or not, the 20th Anniversary Swap is just around the corner. We are happy to have with us again many participants that were with us for years, as well as to welcome some new ones – check them out at the Details page.
The list of the sponsors has grown again - Blackbeard’s Cruises and Scuba 2000 are now joined by Groundhog Divers and Aquarius Scuba.
To mark the Anniversary, this year we will have additional content – including vintage gear display and presentations on various topics related to scuba diving. Come grab a coffee or a cookie and stay with us and your other buddies for a little longer.
The Details page contains some useful information – including the times, the location map, sellers' tips and visitors' tips, printable flyers and the information on door and special prizes (even more exciting this year owing to our sponsors). If you have further questions, and they are not answered on the Frequently Asked Questions page – feel free to contact us.
See you on 15th and 16th of April!

The Community Room program will be available to the visitors free of charge.

20th Swap's Content Almost Complete
What have OUE members been doing lately in preparation for the 20th Anniversary Swap? Well, some set some time aside for a bit of fun at Toronto's Outdoor Adventure Show - if being in an oversized fish tank filled with hot water and performing tricks at the whims of public is your idea of fun. Everything for popularizing the sport...
Meanwhile, the roster of participants is practically completed, pending the paperwork from the last few - check the Details page for the latest information. We are welcoming some new partcipants for the first time, as well as reuniting with the ones who have been with us before – including Blackbeard’s Cruises and Scuba 2000, our sponsors.
We would like to spend some more quality time with our visitors, so we booked another room where we'll have a number of interesting presentations, including quick save–a–dive repairs by Custom Diving Services. A collection of vintage diving gear will also be on display, courtesy of Alec Peirce.
Getting close!
