New Year's Eve Dive December 31, 2004 - January 1, 2005
It was a beautiful night with full moon and clear sky for our 3rd Annual New Year Eve dive. The evening began with a meal together at Daut's Restaurant in Auburn. Meeting afterwards on the shores of Ensenore on Owasco Lake. Divers included Keith Mardsen, Rick Horr, Rick Crofoot, Don Groff, Henry MacDonald, Chris Buffington, Rosemarie and R.J. Bent. Our experienced shore crew included Janet Marsden, Connie Horr, Joan MacDonald, Cher&Ron Benda, Kathy Groff, Renee Crofoot & Orrin Marcono. After the dive, food and beverages were provided at the Bent's residence. Everyone had a great time and plan to do it again next year!

About a dozen members of the Auburn Skin Divers Association planned to
