Scuba Madness Testimonials

A very big thank you to you and Sherry for the outstanding job the two of you did with the rescue class. It was by far my favorite class that I've taken. It seems to me the rescue course should be mandatory for every diver. Looking forward to the next class. Again, thanks for the opportunity to experience this wonderful sport and to be able to do it with excellent training.

I'd like to thank the entire staff of Scuba Madness for my recent experience underwater. My ten year old son Jonathan and I took the Open Water Class together and the instructors could not have been more patient and professional. It must be tough enough to teach adults, but to take the time to explain to a 10 year old dive tables in a manner that he understands them takes a special teacher. We found that in Howard Efird and CB Averitt. Thanks for a tremendous opportunity for a father and son. Jonathan's well on his way to becoming the marine biologist he wants to be when he grows up!

I would like to express my appreciation to Sherry for doing such a great job with the recent rescue class. Her patience with us while we were in the water really helped me to understand more about rescue and rescue methods. I would also like to give a special thanks to John and Laurie for being such good victims. Hopefully I will never have to use what I learned in a real rescue situation, but if I do I feel that what Sherry taught us in class will prepare us for it. Again to the entire staff at Scuba Madness keep up the good work. Thanks for making my dive experience safe and fun.

Thanks,

Herb Thompson

I wanted to take time to thank Laurie for the patience that she displayed with me over the past month or so while I worked toward my certification. Laurie is an excellent instructor! She helped me work through some of the more difficult skills with ease and as a result I became PADI certified on July 11. When I first started with the pool sessions, I didn't even like putting my face underwater - my goodness, I've come so far in just that! If anybody has any doubts about getting up their nerve and getting certified they need to see me! If I can do it, ANYBODY can. I may have set the record on the length of time that it takes to get certified, but persistence will eventually pay off.
I'm so excited about the new world that Laurie has helped me discover. I can't wait to get wet again and see just what the beauty of this underwater world is all about. Thank you again for your support and especially for having on your staff superior instructors like Laurie!
