Here's the answer to the BIG 3 Questions:
IMPORTANT INFO ABOUT CAMPING Please share to your Grotto or Group:
The large field just behind the shower house is CLOSED to camping this year. This is where many larger campers typically go, so consider this before you bring large campers - you will need to find somewhere else to park and camp.
More about this: Last year was wetter and muddier than we have ever seen it, and several campers were stuck to the axles in mud. This area needs time to heal.
The Hot Tub and Sauna area will 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 couple of years, 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.

Sunday Morning Give-Back: After you're packed up, please help clean your area, and the whole site. Lets leave it as good as we found it, like CAVERS are famous for - and PLEASE PLEASE recycle all of your cans and plastics! Cavers really do make money that winds up funding caver projects - so it's worth the extra few seconds to find a recycle bin - they're everywhere!!
