Scuba Instructor Chris I offer those interested regardless of location a chance at the lowest rates to get certified through PADI as open water divers. Already certified?

11/23/2023

2024 North America Ice Diving Festival

Registration is now officially open!

Largest Ice Diving Festival in the World

We will be having divers coming in from around the world, expecting over 100 divers and 600 attendees.

10 holes for both Ice Fun Dives and Ice Certifications

Cost:
Already Ice Certified: $75
Getting Ice Certified: $295 (PADI, SDI or ERDI)
Getting PADI Ice Instructor: $275

For PADI Ice certification, must be al least Advance Open Water, 18 year of age with cold water experience. We will only be able to accept 30 Ice Diving certifications during the Festival - first come! Recommend divers who are located around the Twin Cities - Minnesota get Ice Certified prior to the Festival with MidWest School of Diving and then still attend at no additional cost the Ice Festival for a fun dive.

Planning on having a Saturday evening Ice (Night) Dive, divers need to be Ice Certified along with Night certified, no training during this evening dive. Extra logistics for this dive so we have to charge an additional $20 per diver.

Divers going through training must submit a current Medical form which can be downloaded at: https://www.padi.com/sites/default/files/documents/2022-12/Diver_Medical_Participant_Questionnaire_10346_EN_English_2022-02-01.pdf

Orientation-Safety meeting on Friday evening the 1st of March which is mandatory for all divers, starting at 6pm.

Everyone will receive a 2024 North American Ice Diving Festival t-shirt.

Due to the number of divers attending, divers should expect to come in with all of their gear including underwater flashlights.

We will be offering addition classes during the Ice Festival; PSI-PCI courses, DAN Courses, planning on having service seminars for equipment repair.

Travel destinations, resorts and Bureau of Tourisms from various locations.

Food vender on the Ice for attendees.

Expecting over 25 Scuba Manufacturers attending and having displays on the product.

Expecting representatives from PADI, SDI-TDI-ERDI, SSI, DAN and NAUI attending.

More information to follow, still 3 months to go. Recommended Hotel list will be released within the next 2 week.
