HISTORY

Jan Posten and Clarke Skinner formed the Santa Clarita Dive Club in July 1988. Clarke was a Department Manager at the Santa Clarita Sport Chalet, then on Lyons Avenue and Wiley Canyon. The club was started to promote diving in the SCV area. The club started with 25-members and has grown to a peak of 150-members. The clubs first logo (very similar to today) was first designed by Gill & Kathy Rendon in the fall of 1988. The first meeting was at Shakey's Pizza in Saugus, which is no longer there.
