Scuba Rangers
Scuba diving is a totally awesome sport. Until recently, only older kids and adults could do it. Not anymore! Now there's Scuba Rangers, a way cool scuba club for kids ages 8 to 12. With Scuba Rangers, you can scuba dive in a pool with real diving equipment, play games underwater, and other fun stuff! Scuba diving is an awesome sport. You're like an astronaut floating weightlessly in space. In fact, NASA astronauts train for space shuttle missions in a huge water tank, and scuba divers are there to help them. Scuba divers are explorers, archeaologists, treasure hunters, and scientists. Scuba divers discover amazing things every day, because the oceans, rivers and lakes of the world are the last frontiers left on the planet. Scuba divers also work in dive stores, at exotic resorts, on oil rigs, in the military, and on hundreds of other jobs that require people to go underwater. Scuba divers also dive for fun and adventure. You can see sharks, dolphins, seals, and thousands of types of fish. You can dive in kelp, on coral reefs, in lakes anywhere that looks interesting and makes you wonder, "What's down there?" If you're looking for a new activity that's way cooler than soccer, snowboarding, karate and skydiving, check out scuba diving and the Scuba Rangers! You're part of a special, elite group - scuba divers! You accomplish things that will amaze your parents - and yourself. You develop good sense around the water, and increase awareness of water safety. You build confidence, self-esteem and pride. Unlike many other sports, scuba diving can be enjoyed for a lifetime. Diving's something very few people can do - maybe not even your parents! It's easy to become a Scuba Ranger. Scuba Rangers is for any active kid age 8 to 12. You must have basic swimming skills, be comfortable in the water, and be in good health. Next, you enroll in a Scuba Ranger Development Program. In the program, you work your way through five basic levels. You'll get cool rewards for each level you complete. Level 1: Red Ranger - Water safety techniques, swimming and snorkeling skills. Level 2: White Ranger - Snorkel review and first time on scuba. Level 3: Blue Ranger - More scuba skills and underwater photography. Level 4: Silver Ranger - More scuba, fun and games. Level 5: Demo Ranger - Demo Ranger is the highlight, because you proudly demonstrate your skills to parents, family and friends. After Demo Ranger, you get a temporary completion card. You are also eligible to join the Scuba Rangers Club, where the fun really begins. Rangers are expected to make a commitment to learning the proper diving skills and following safe diving practices - and to having fun! Contact your local Desert Divers SCUBA Center to sign up your kids for a lifetime of adventure!
