~ NEW BEGINNINGS ~
Our friends and customers often tell us: "I want to be Bud and Heather when I grow up".
Such a wonderful comment and testimony to US Scuba and US Travel Center.
For 37 years, we were blessed to have our passion our life and occupation.
In 1983 while in Bonaire, dining at the second floor of the DIVI Flamingo Chibi Chibi Restaurant, we decided to open US scuba Center and designed the now well-known
US Scuba Center logo on a cocktail napkin.
THE REST IS HISTORY
RECOGNIZED AGAIN AS THE OUTSTANDING SCUBA CENTER IN MICHIGAN
IN-STORE POOL, STATE LICENCED, Scuba & Snorkel Equipment Sales, Scuba & Snorkel Classes for Kids and Adults, Outstanding SERVICE Department, Scuba Diving Adventures for Groups and Individuals!, Above Water Adventure Group Trips, LICENSED TRAVEL AGENCY .
Eight years ago, the 30th Anniversary Commemorative T Shirt described it perfectly:
"Our Adventure, Our Passion, Our Journey, Our World".
Our Goal was to offer a full service professional scuba center to include a retail sales area with the best equipment for all budgets, an unrivaled state of the art service center, a knowledgeable and supportive sales team and a quality training program introducing both children and adults to the amazing underwater world.
Our Mission to train safe, confident competent and conservative divers. For children under 12 years of age we developed a program to introduce them to the underwater world with fun pre-diving programs that would help them develop into responsible adult divers with an unrivaled enthusiasm.
In 1994 we realized our ultimate goal when we purchased 515 S Rochester Road and built the current US Scuba Center state of the art 100,000 gallon pool for instruction.
Made special with the life-size coral reef scene painted by Jack Sellick
US Scuba Center became the entrance store to both Rochester HIlls and the City of Rochester, drawing customers from around the state and Canada.
We are grateful for the thousands of students and customers that chose US Scuba Center.
US Scuba Center introduced these students and customers to the precious underwater world including such great diving locations as the
Great Lakes, the Caribbean, Africa, Australia, Indonesia and the Pacific.
Many of our students have become ambassadors for the underwater world,
protecting the amazing 75% of our planet has become their passion.
They generously supported marine preservation programs which we sponsored and initiated resulting in over a $100,000 being donated to marine preservation programs.
With the opening of US Travel Center in 1986 as wholesalers for great diving locations, our full service travel program grew.
US Travel Specializes in "Above and Below" water group travel.
We have developed strong ties and friendships with resorts and dive operations around the world and cherish these relationships.
We have decided to travel more This is difficult with the day to day operations of a large professional diving center such as US Scuba Center and the introduction of COVID to our world.
We love US Scuba Center's physical location and pool on Rochester Road and with heavy heart but looking forward to new adventures have sold the building.
Our love and dedication to US Scuba Center meant spending more time at US Scuba than at our actual home. A new roof last year, repainting the non-mural pool walls, it was our intention to resurface the deep end of the pool in December and January and started plans to do so.
For years, numerous operations were interested in purchasing the famous US SCUBA CENTER. The building is now the new home for Chief Financial and we wish them the same success, happiness and fulfillment of dreams this home provided for us.
Not having the day to day operations of a large scuba center, allows us to concentrate on the travel aspect of the business and occasional scuba instruction
(putting our 90 years of instruction and experience between us to use).
This year Group Trips and Travel were once more a reality despite COVID.
Upcoming trips this year included Little Cayman and Cayman, Bonaire in April and November, Indonesia in August and some other surprises.
In 2022 and 2023 there will be great group trip offerings including Africa and Indonesia
and we look forward to you traveling with US Travel again.
We love you all and you are an important part of our lives and family.
