Divers compete for prizes that are awarded and raffled in a ceremony after the dive. The proceeds from the event benefit Catalina Conservancy Divers, a non-profit ecological organization whose mission is to monitor and protect the waters around Catalina Island and support the operation of the Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber, a life support recompression chamber on Catalina that serves the thousands of divers who frequent the nearby waters.
