Dear Friends,
I'm delighted to announce that the National Cave and Karst Research Institute (NCKRI) has launched its new website at www.nckri.org. In it you'll find much information about NCKRI, its programs and projects, how to join or support NCKRI, its staff and board, and more. And even more is coming! In the next few months we'll add information on conferences we are leading and hosting, plus other news and information. Now that we've finished giving the website a great new look and better structure, we will keep building and updating it for years to come. The website also has our new Annual Report, which covers NCKRI's activities from July 2010 through June 2010. You'll find it on our publications page (in our "About NCKRI" tab). I also have two short announcements: First, the holidays are coming and everyone at NCKRI sends you their best wishes for the season and New Year. Please be aware that we will all be on vacation starting on December 23 and we'll return to the office on January 3. Second, about a month ago many of you participated in a fun fund-raising activity for NCKRI by going to www.philanthroper.com and donating one dollar each to support NCKRI. We recently received the results from Philanthroper, which totaled nearly $700! Thank you for showing your support for NCKRI. By visiting www.nckri.org and reading our Annual Report, you'll see that NCKRI is a strong believer in partnerships and will put your funds to good use. I hope you will consider joining NCKRI soon.
