All, diggers and implements of digging are also needed for the Salado weekend. Hope to see y'all then. Thanks! Mark
________________________________ Attention all Texas cavers! There are a couple of caving events coming up that I wanted to make you aware of: Salado, TX Ranch Ridge Walkathon, Saturday, May 2nd, 2009 - Paul Unger has been contacted and all Texas cavers have been invited to explore, map, and survey some caves near Salado, TX. We also will be doing some ridge walking, exploring other possible caves, enjoying a nice camping area (!), utilizing their swim hole (!!), and enjoying some excellent camaraderie and weather! Contact Mark for info and details. Salado is halfway between Georgetown and Temple, an easy drive from Austin and DFW. Please bring your own water, food, camping gear and vertical and survey gear, if you have it. Longhorn Caverns State Park Dig, Saturday, June 6th - This is a pre-ICS project! We will be meeting at the visitors center at Longhorn Caverns State Park at 9 AM, Saturday, June 7th, and caravan from there to the Crownover entrance. We will be prepping the area for a possible thru trip during ICS, hanging out at the beautiful state park, and conducting a possible thru trip. Please bring your own water, food, and camping gear as the Visitors area at the park is available Friday and Saturday nights. Contact Mark, if you plan on attending! So, after you have enjoyed talking about caving at the TSA Convention, come on out to these projects, as well as the always popular CBSP Project, and get down and dirty in some real caves. If you're in college, you can always cram for those exams Sunday night, after you get back! Hope to see you and give me a holler if you're coming! Thanks and I'll see you at the Convention in only 8 days! Mark
