50 years of diving pleasures

hillsville, pa.

As soon as the winter frost begins to melt and summer days return, scuba divers from as far as Columbus and Mansfield flock to Fox Quarry here, to practice their sport and enjoy some friendly company at a shop that has become a staple of the local diving community.

B&B Diving, a small scuba shop tucked away on 54 acres along Churchill Road between Hillsville and Bessemer, Pa., is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.

The store, founded by brothers Bill and Bob Tyger, began as a marine shop on Glenwood Avenue in Youngstown.
