Bookbag Santa

For our first blog, we are pleased to introduce Gary Hunt. Gary is a very special guy who comes to dive and do inland tours with Splash Dive Center every year. A lot of special people do that, but Gary is extra special because he founded a group called Bookbag Santa. Gary brought a group of 20 good hearted people to Belize each carrying 100 pounds of school supplies to donate for the kids in three schools in Belize. That is a whopping 2000 pounds of school supplies - one ton!!!!!

Gary is a former Peace Corps volunteer who just never stopped doing good works. You can check his website out a

Gary always brings a musician. For the 2010 trip, Ron Bertrand who lived in Belize for 2 years entertained the kids in the schools, the group in the bars and restaurants and the divers and snorkelers on the Splash dive and snorkel trips. Most of his songs mention Belize, and evoke some of the local color. You can find him at
