Please be thinking about interesting topics to present at the convention. Stefan and the TCCC (Texas Caving Cooking Crew) are going to bless us again this year with a wonderful catered meal! We are all lucky to have the cooks. Lyndon and the Greater Houston Grotto have agreed to be the registration team.
