Something New to Dive About

  For the scuba diving enthusiasts there is something new to see under the water at  Lake Ore-Be-Gone.
  The Tall Pines Scuba Club of Virginia, lowered two old rail speeders cars into the depths of the lake. The 2 speeders cars were donated by Minntac Mining Company of Mt. Iron.
  The cars were thoroughly cleaned and lowered about 40 feet onto a platform. A great addition to the diving pleasures of Lake-Ore-Be-Gone.
