Quarry Socials

Spend your Saturday morning with us!


We’re so lucky to have a quarry only 20 minutes away. It gives everyone a great place to practice, meet other divers, and take new classes!

Our socials are designed to give people of all skill levels a chance to get in the water! If you aren’t familiar with the quarry or are a solo diver wanting a guided tour, sign up for one of our guided dives! If you are pretty comfortable and just need a dive buddy, we’ll pair you up! We’re also on hand for questions and further information!

Advanced Specialties

Starting in May, we hold our monthly Perfect Buoyancy and Navigation Advanced Specialties during the cookouts! You will need to register, pay for, and complete coursework before the Saturday of your class.

Most people knock out both of these on the same day, if you can.

Cost

Beyond the $25 entry fee into the park, and the cost of rental equipment, our Quarry Events are always free to attend. If you do wish to give money, we will be collecting money for the CNC Swim Foundation at every social!

This foundation has partnered with our swim school, Oak City Swim School, to provide swim scholarships to almost 100 of our students!

Fantasy Lake Procedures

Updated 5/04/24

As of this update, Fantasy Lake Adventure Park has moved digital and will now require waivers. If you forget to do this ahead of time, we’ll have QR codes at the shop for Friday night pick-ups.

Purchase Day Pass

A link to fill out the annual waiver will be emailed to you after you purchase your pass.

Fantasy Lake Map

This map labels the buoys you’ll see on the lake’s surface and some of the items you’ll see below the surface.

Fantasy Lake Annual Temperature

This isn’t a daily updated temperature report but it’s a great way to see the annual flow of temperature changes by depth.

Either fill out the form below or contact us!

This form will take 1-5 minutes to fill out, depending on what you need. If you answer ‘yes’ to needing cylinders or a divemaster, an additional question will appear for specifications.

Are you competing in the Chili Cook-off?
You could win $500!
Do you need a Tour Guide or to be paired up with a dive buddy?
A Dive Buddy will be another solo diver at the event that wants to be paired up.
Our Tour Guides are our Divemasters and are only trained to lead comfortable divers on a tour of Fantasy Lake. They do have the right to refuse to lead a diver, if the diver appears to need a refresher course. If you need more one-on-one work to refresh your skills or knowledge, please contact us to do a scuba refresher before the quarry social.

Tour Guides

Because you are noting you need a Tour Guide, we’ll set you up with a Divemaster! Please select a meeting time below. Please note these guided dives can get crowded and the dive guide might not have the ability to spend a lot of individual time with you. For everyone’s safety, please consider if you need a refresher.

Waiver of Liability*
The diver, or the undersigned parents/guardians of an diver under the age of maturity, releases and absolves The Elite Gypsy Corporation, DBA Gypsy Divers, William Harloff III, and any and all agents and employees of Gypsy Divers from any and all liability for property loss or damage, and/or from any and all damages resulting from death or personal injuries, including loss of services arising out of, or in conjunction with applicant’s chosen travel program, whether resulting from negligence of anyone in charge of or participating in said program or from ownership, maintenance, use, operation or control of any automobile, ship, airplane, bicycle, boat, vehicle, inn, hotel, common carrier, or otherwise.
Diver Responsibility*
While we understand the comfort in having a dive professional guiding dives, each diver is responsible for their own dive. If it seems that a diver does not appear well suited for the dive, the Divemaster leading the tour has the right to ask the diver to sit a dive out and seek a refresher.
Dive Brief Time*
You’ll be meeting for your dive brief under the first pavilion.
Clear Signature


Cylinders Rentals

Because you are noting you need cylinders, we will set some aside for you! You’ll need to pick these up at Gypsy Divers on Friday before we close at 7 PM.

Picking up my cylinders*

If you need to rent equipment, list out what you need. We rent out: cylinders, weights, regulators with gauges, and BCs. Friday we’ll have everything marked and set aside on the store floor!
