[SWR] NCKMS not shutdown! Detailed schedule now posted

2013-10-13 Thread George Veni
Dear Friends,

The ongoing government shutdown has had many adverse effects across the 
country, but I'm happy to say that the National Cave and Karst Management 
Symposium (NCKMS) is still on schedule to be an excellent meeting at NCKRI 
Headquarters in Carlsbad, New Mexico. NCKRI is co-hosting this meeting with the 
Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, and US Forest Service. If the 
shutdown continues until the conference date of 4-8 November 2013, we have 
options and assistance in place to make up for where our federal friends won't 
be able to help.

So if you haven't registered yet, do! Not convinced? The detailed schedule has 
now been posted. Check out http://nckri.org/nckms2013. Click on the Schedule 
tab to see the general schedule. If you just put your cursor over Schedule 
you'll find drop-down menus with the schedules of the three days of 42 great 
talks. It's not too late to register for the great workshops and field trips 
that are also offered. Remember, the field trips are included in the price of 
registration. If you can't stay the full week, day passes are available!

Please share or post this message with anyone you think may be interested.

I look forward to seeing you soon in Carlsbad,

George

It is the opinion of several old Aggie Cavers, that the 40th Anniversary is
this semester.

I heard a rumor of some cavers talking about it.

I am not in the loop of communication in any way.

If no party is being planned, then I would propose something in the Houston
area in the spring of 2014.

In 1993 at TCR, about 15 Aggie's posed for a 20-year Reunion photo that I
have never seen.   Ernie Garza  Jay Jorden were the photographers.  That
reunion lasted about 120 seconds.

I have been told the faculty adviser has been the same guy for at least 30
years.  A former caver, Bob Lytton.   Right ?   He deserves a huge award.

That is probably correct. Alicia Wisener Gale was a Temple Caver, as was I and 
my younger sister Jane, and one of my younger sister's best friends. If memory 
serves, most of the Temple Cavers headed to college in the fall of 1973, the 
majority going to UT in Austin. No way was Alicia going to be left out going to 
AM, so as far as I remember, she found an advisor and instigated the A.S.S. 
grotto that fall. She and her husband John Gale are, I believe, still listed in 
last year's NSS member list, although I do not know if they still cave. James 
Jasek and Chuck Stuehm were the major mentors for the Temple Cavers before they 
split to go their separate academic ways. As far as I know, I am the only 
member still actively caving, although Tommy Joe may still go sometimes when 
not being one of our fantastic TCR cooks:)

I bumped into Timmy Joe at a Cajun restaurant in downtown Houston about 2
years ago.

He subtly indicated to me that he had other hobbies occupying his spare
time.

My fuzzy memory recalls something about a bad back or bad knee, etc.

Feel free to correct me.

Better get that memory of yours fixed up David!  Was it the bump on the head 
from falling of the ladder?

[Texascavers] Government Canyon Karst Project

2013-10-13 Thread Marvin and Lisa
The November Government Canyon Karst Project will not be held on the first
weekend of the month as is usual. Instead the project date will be Sunday,
Nov. 10. This will be a Sunday only project. Camping is available for
Saturday and Sunday night. Contact me to arrange that, or with any other
project-related questions.
 
We meet at 9:00 at the Volunteer/Research Station. After entering the park
at the main gate, take the first right. Go through the closed gate (make
sure to close it again behind you) and proceed approximately 1 mile to the
VRS. We usually meet in the parking lot to the right.
