ARAMIS - THE START
Our founder Diving Officer and founder Chairman, the " Two Tones ",
started the club in April 1994. Tony Butcher suggested the formation of
a dive club in Goole after Tony Dean offered to sponsor 4 sets of equipment
on the provision that he learned to dive before his holidays in June. That
was it. A number of prospective members came along to the first meeting
at the Leisure Centre pub along with a number of RMS employees wanting to
learn to dive. Tony B completed all the paperwork and thought of the name,
a derivative of RMS, and decided on which equipment the club needed to start.
The " Two Tones made sure the equipment was at the pool-side every Thursday
night in good order. The club is still going strong today and still meet
at the pool-side every Thursday night.
NOTE: Tony Dean did learn to dive before his holiday to Corfu in the June.
