Message from the President
Dear friends of Diveheart:
When do you take time for reflection? We're all so busy it seems almost impossible to find time to finish our To Do list, start that new project or even count our blessings.
This newsletter is a wonderful tool for me, because it forces me on a monthly basis to take a look at where we've been, where we are and where we're going.
Unfortunately, this space is to short to cover everything..especially our blessings.
Thanks to you, Friends of Diveheart for making this year an unbelievable success. You've touched the lives of so many locally and around the world with your support of Diveheart activities.
However, one blessing that cannot be overlooked, came in the form of a visit from a MAN DOWN UNDER.
Mike Letch was Traveling the world on a Winston Churchill Fellowship to identify the best practices in disabled dive training when his journey brought him to Diveheart.
What he discovered is revealed in Dan Barrett's story below.
When you finish reading, I hope you take a moment to reflect. I know I did...
Jim Elliott
President of Diveheart
