Subject: 15th ICS - Devil's Sinkhole
Dear Friends,
I have learned there is some misunderstanding about two field trips
for the International Congress of Speleology (ICS). Many of you are
registering for two of the Wednesday trips that will visit the Devil’s
Sinkhole:
WD 102: Birds, rivers, and bats
WD 107: Kickapoo Cavern and the Devil’s Sinkhole
We tried to be clear that these trips will only watch bats fly out of
the Devil’s Sinkhole, but some people are registering expecting to
rappel into the cave. These trips will not enter the Devil’s Sinkhole
(WD 107 will enter Kickapoo Cavern). If you want to enter the Devil’s
Sinkhole, there will be trips for that during other days of the ICS.
The ICS will offer 76 caving trips to 20 different caves throughout
the week that are not on the registration form. The upcoming April NSS
News will describe some of the trips. When you arrive, visit the
Information Room near Registration. You will find descriptions of all
of the trips offered. You can then select the trips you wish to join.
Space is limited so register early for those trips when you arrive in
Kerrville.
I apologize for any confusion about the Wednesday trips. If this
information changes your trip choices and you are already registered,
go to https://secure.concentric.com/ics2009.us/register/regform.php?addInfo=true
to change your trip preferences or to add trips. If you are not yet
registered for the ICS, you can register at https://secure.concentric.com/ics2009.us/register/
.
Remember, to have a guaranteed place on the pre-ICS, post-ICS, or
Wednesday trips, you must register by 16 April! Also remember that
there will be no meeting or activities on Wednesday except for the
Wednesday field trips. You have 20 great Wednesday trips to choose
from and some are filling so register now.
