Texas Resources just parks, places and clubs that offer services of interest.

• Gay Outdoor Club/Divers-Email server only. Use to network with other Divers who happen to be Gay. Great way to set up quick spur of the moment trips and take advantage of last minute discounts. I recommend OLSSC . OLSSC is a very active club with many trips and socials. Very well ran and a great group of people. 
• OLSSC of Dallas Oak Lawn Ski and Scuba club of Dallas is a non-profit social club organizing outdoor recreational trips for the gay and lesbian community, including: Snow Skiing, Scuba Diving and Socials.
• Clear Spring Scuba Park : Scuba park in Terrell Texas!! Less than one hour east of Dallas.
• Athens Scuba Park : Weekend Scuba park near Dallas, TX.
• Texins Dive Club: Texas Instruments Dive Club. A well run certification program and nice group of people. Mostly Texas Instruments employees , family and friends. Membership open to non-Texas Instruments employees. (Check out training schedule and prices!)

  Shopping, Bargains and Gclub member comments. If you know of a great place to shop, send me their url and I will try and add them to the site. Let them know you are a Gclub club member and ask if they offer club discounts and benefits. Send them to the site. Ask for link backs.. Also, if you have problems with a company listed, let me know many times they will correct their error if they know they have visibility. ...Gclub Member Comment on mail ordering Dive gear: "... there are a few things that I would not mail order, mask, wetsuits or anything item you're really concerned about how it fits and effects comfort." (Thanks Roger)

• Rodale's Scuba Diving Gear Buyer's Guide
• Performance Diver Gclub Member"..they run frequent sales and sale items can be great deals."
• Sport Extreme from Denmark Gclub Member" is the company I ordered my equipment from in Denmark. Service was great and I had my items in about a week. The main benefit here is price; SCUBA gear like so many other items has significantly different list prices in different countries. So my Mares Dragon Fly BC which sells for $800.00 in local shops cost me about $450.00. I also bought a regulator, octopus and dive computer at a similar discount from local prices."
• Discount Diver I have not ordered from these people, but have heard some good things about them.
