SUMMARY:2025 Tallahassee Capital Dive Day - Lionfish Awareness
DESCRIPTION:We’ll be there! \nhttps://www.dema.org/page/DiveInDay \nEach year\, DEMA sponsors “Dive in Day” at the Capitol in Tallahassee\, giving DEMA Members the opportunity to visit our state’s Capitol\, showcase their diving-related products and services\, and promote issues relating to the scuba diving industry. We are excited to announce this year’s Dive in Day at the Capitol will take place on April 30th\, 2025. Members are encouraged to arrive on April 29th to meet with Tom Ingram to discuss current issues that are important to the scuba diving industry. \nDive in Day provides a platform to engage Florida’s 160 legislators\, the Governor and their staff members\, and hundreds of visitors to the Capitol.  DEMA has reserved the courtyard and first floor of the Capitol building to give DEMA Members and Florida-based diving businesses an opportunity to showcase Florida’s recreational diving operators. It’s a chance to highlight the importance of scuba diving to Florida’s economy\, tourism\, and marine ecosystems while advocating for policies that sustain our industry. \nOpportunities to Participate \n\nTable-top Display at the Capitol Rotunda: We encourage members to set up interactive displays that showcase their dive shops\, marine life education\, or scuba diving experiences. If you are interested in exhibiting\, we suggest you bring simple table-top displays\, brochures\, videos\, product information\, handouts or other engaging materials to spark interest and conversation with lawmakers and the public.\nExhibiting companies should plan to set up starting at 4:00 PM on April 29th so that your exhibit will be up and running on the morning of April 30th.* Spaces are available on a first come-first served basis\, and are large enough to accommodate an 8ft. table.

Giveaway items\, merchandise\, and informational materials are distributed to attendees and lawmakers to amplify awareness of the diving industry and DEMA’s legislative messaging.\nLobby with Us: For those interested in bringing attention to issues critical to the Industry in Florida\, on request\, DEMA will arrange a time for you to meet with your state Senator or Representative or their staff members and provide you with information that will help you discuss these important topics. You can take advantage of this opportunity and participate with DEMA’s Public Policy efforts in Florida\, by calling Melanie Leyva at (850) 201-5224 or by email at mleyva@lawfla.com.\nMeeting YOUR Representative or Senator can focus attention on a variety of issues that affect the scuba diving industry\, such as ecotourism\, the future of the goliath grouper\, spiny lobster\, lionfish environmental issues\, and others. DEMA will also distribute relevant information to legislators (and Capitol visitors) which includes the size of the diving industry in Florida and its importance in jobs\, tourism\, and the economy with a focus on the economic benefit of Florida dive businesses and the protection of sharks and their vital role in the marine ecosystem.\n\nTo RSVP or for more information about Dive in Day at the Capitol\, please contact Melanie Leyva at mleyva@lawfla.com or call (850) 201-5224.

It’s a surprising fact that few vets are scuba certified\, including even Navy Seals. \nShare your love of scuba diving with those truly deserving. Thank these warriors for their service with more than just lip service. Show your gratitude with a donation to Warfighters Scuba. It takes cash to care. Let’s care about these worthy warriors.
