The June grotto meeting will be held on Thursday, June 19 at the Adventure Science Center starting at 7pm.
Hi all,
Talking with Robert over the weekend, I have agreed to lead a NG trip to Conley Hole on Saturday June 21, 2008.
This is a very nice 163’ pit. There should be a beam of light in the pit this time of year. There is a hike across a field and up the mountain too, so you’ll get to sweat.
We are meeting at the Bell Road Shoney’s on 1-24 in Nashville at 8 AM (leave by 8:15). The second meeting place, in case some of the Upper Cumberland Cavers want to tag along, will be the little square/park in “downtown” Viola, Tennessee (off hwy. 55) at 9:30 AM to leave.
Update: Date changed to Sunday June 29
Aimee Roosenberg and Joey Stuckey will be leading a clean-up trip to Indian Grave Point Cave, Dekalb County, TN. This is a horizontal cave with some minor climbing, some trash to pick up and graffiti removal. Meeting at 8:00 a.m. at the McDonalds at the Hwy 109 exit on I-40 (east of Nashville).
We have a reservation for July 1 for Shelter # 10 at Edwin Warner Park. The shelter is located off Vaughns Road and is South of Old Hickory Blvd. between Hwy 100 and Hillsboro Road.
There is no acohol allowed on Park property. If someone is interested in grilling out, they will want to bring the appropriate stuff. I don't believe we can build a fire on the ground. My suggestion is to bring something already to eat. We may want to start a list of what people are planning to bring so we don't end up with 20 bags of potato chips and nothing else, or worse, only cookies to eat;)

The July grotto meeting will be held on Thursday, July 17 at the Adventure Science Center starting at 7pm.
On Friday July 18, Dave Wascher and Joe Stewart will be leading a trip to Parachute Cave in western Davidson County. If there is time we may make a side trip to Brenmark Cave too. We will meet behind Brewhouse West at 7108 Charlotte Pike at 6:00pm. Since we'll be at the Brewhouse after the trip it will be a good place to have a bite to eat too.
