Subject: 15th ICS - Coming early to the ICS?
Dear Friends,
Yesterday I spoke with the Registration Committee of the 15th
International Congress of Speleology (ICS). They said nearly 1,000
people are registered so far! They also said that many of you are
planning to arrive on 16 or 17 July. That is OK with us, as long as
you remember and understand certain things:
* The ICS begins on 19 July. No activities are planned before that
date except for registration and to prepare Schreiner University for
the ICS.
* Free transportation from the San Antonio International Airport
to Schreiner University in Kerrville will only be provided on 18 and
19 July as the ICS begins, and 26 and 27 July as the ICS ends. If you
arrive at the airport on other days, you will be responsible for
arranging your transportation to Kerrville. The ICS Organizing
Committee will be occupied preparing for the ICS and many of our
assistants won’t be available until the 18th. We will try to help you,
but we can’t guarantee assistance at this time.
* Registration at the ICS is scheduled to begin on the morning of
18 July. If you arrive before the 18th, we will register you early so
you can move into your apartment, dormitory, or campsite, but ask your
patience and assistance as we set-up our computers and supplies to
make registration possible.
We know that many of you are coming early so you can help us set-up
the university for the ICS. We will need and greatly appreciate your
help in preparing facilities in the campground, unloading trucks with
supplies, setting up tables and rooms, etc. We don’t want to
discourage anyone from coming early on 16 and 17 July, but we want to
make you aware of our limitations on those days
