Pinellas County Property Appraiser Mike Twitty will be leading a group of scuba divers to the Circle of Heroes Veterans’ Memorial, the world’s only underwater veterans’ memorial, located off the coast of Clearwater. County employees and their family and friends are invited to join.

The trip is planned for Saturday, May 25 at 8 a.m. This is a two-tank trip, so this will include a second dive site. Book your trip directly with the operator at 2 Tank Scuba Dive Trip. When booking, be sure to include the group name PCPAO in the “Comments” section to ensure that everyone is put on the same boat. You can also learn more about the dive operator. The boat leaves the dock from 198 Seminole Street in Clearwater at 8 a.m.

All divers must hold an Open Water scuba diver certification.
