Who we are and what we do is best explained by our mission statement.  "To provide a friendly annual gathering of Deep Sea Divers, commercial and military, retired and active to foster and maintain the camaraderie that we all uniquely share that is inherent to the occupation to which we are proud."

We hold an annual reunion that continues to grow each year.  Since 1993, our Reunion has increased from approximately 100 to over 500 attendees.  Held in Chesapeake, VA at the Fleet Reserve Association Branch 40, we provide a camping area for tents, “pop-ups”, and RV’s. The gates open at noon for food, beverage, games, and entertainment.  We sell Divers Recall merchandise and provide display areas for our invited guests and local diving organizations. During the day we have a DJ and tournaments such as horseshoes, volleyball, and tug of war. During the evening we have a live band with a dancing area and and is generally considered adult time.

To provide shelter, there are tents covering the dining area, band, and dancing area.   We have drawings for various door prizes, most of which are donated by our generous sponsors.

We have attendees from all over the U.S. and other parts of the world. The reunion is open to ALL divers, not just military and commercial.

Admission at the gate is as follows:

• Single — $30
• Couple / Family — $40

To raise funds for our annual event, we hold a fundraiser the last Friday of each month. Additionally, we request sponsorship from various diving companies, dive lockers, and business. Sponsors of $500.00 or more receives advertisement in the form of a “hot-link” from our website to theirs. We also display banners they wish to provide at the reunion.
