Those of you who read this occasionally know that I am now sitting on the Board of Directors for the Ogden Point Enhancement Society.

Ogden Point is one of the spots in Canada that I consider among the best dive locations in our country, particularly for beginners and the Society is committed to protecting and promoting the location, something near and dear to my heart. Ogden Point is not only the location I completed my Scuba Diving Instructors Certification, it is home to some of the finest and most accessible scuba diving in the Pacific Northwest.

The Ogden Point Enhancement Society is adding an Interpretive Center within the Point this year to inform visitors on the marine life of Ogden Point and the surrounding areas, which I am happy to be designing and implementing.

The amazing Ogden Point Breakwater was constructed between 1914 and 1917 and required over one million tons of rock, ten thousand granite blocks, fifty three concrete caissons and over one million cubic yards of dredged fill to build. Indeed, a Canadian engineering marvel.

In early 2008, I was asked to create a professional booth display for the Cruise Industry Association of British Columbia and The Greater Victoria Harbour Authority. I’ve always loved Ogden Point on Vancouver Island so the opportunity to work with these groups and Cruise Victoria was an opportunity to do work for an area I believe in.

This 10 foot display was unveiled at the Seatrade Exposition in Miami, Florida in March 2008 and was quite the hit.
