THE 2021 TAG Fall Cave-In is ON Y'All

scheduled for Oct 7th-10th, 2021!

We've missed you, and we can't wait to hang out and raise our glasses with you again!
There's a lot of lost time to make up for, so get ready for a good time like no other, brother!!

What? you'd like to help us out with the TAG Guidebook? Well, great! 
Since you mention it, we're looking for Historic TAG Fall Cave-in Fun Facts!
If you have some to add, please add them here. We will review them all and select some to include in the 2021 Guidebook! Thanks for your great idea!!

Here's the answer to the BIG 4 Questions:

1. ONLINE PRE-REGISTRATION IS ONLINE! Woohoo!

2. This year's T-Shirt design looks great!
The t-shirt color will be a light grey...if we get a better picture we will update.


Shirts are light and comfy 100% cotton.
Be sure to add them in your size(s) to your pre-registration, because we may not have your size(s) available at the door especially if you need XXL or larger - these are ALWAYS limited edition collectors items -

Special note: Ladies SMALL are a bit undersized, so please consider sizing up..

SOME CHANGES TO ANNOUNCE:

The Hot Tub and Sauna area may be closed this year. We are using the area as a memorial to cavers we have lost, so if you have some memories to add or gear from a caver you'd like to share, please bring it to the new memorial area to display. We have all experienced a hard year, with so much loss to the Caving Community and our families. This is a tribute to memories.

Also, LASER POINTERS are banned, along with AIR HORNS and BOMBS.
Laser pointers will be confiscated. 

Here is a quick listing of happenings for this year:
