Re: [Texascavers] a cool caver-type project

I have no complaints at all.  Most Sea Aggies were at least half way in the 
spirit of things, and give them time.  We need the young or we do not persist 
in any form.

I am not for or against but I just feel the changing environment around the hot

years ago the "Aggie explosion" that began a changing of the guards if you 
would.  While the ASS represents a growing percentage of Texas cavers, they 
also represent a group of cavers that are both casual and transient.  I feel 
the large influx has eroded some of the tradition that being a Texas Caver 
represents.  For the casual Caver they may never know what it's like to come 
out of a cave soaking wet on new years day with your only care being to get out 
of your wet muddy clothes and to get warm or to get to the one point in your 
cave trip where you have to cross that near sump where it would be completely 
pointless to get everything wet.

that of the Texas Caver!!!

Y'all,

Just had a call from Dave asking me to post a big "Thank You" for those who 
dropped by, drank, and generously tipped at his drinkin' establishment at the 
weekend. For once he was close to breaking even.

I encourage those who have never been, to sample some of Dave's wares and enjoy 
the company of those in-the-know who frequent, at the next caving event he's at!

Cheers,
Stefan

[Texascavers] Thanks for the hot tub

[John.Schneider]

I'd like to say a BIG thanks to Pete for the hot tub and sauna.
I helped a little this year and realize just how much work it is to set up and 
tear down the whole thing
And where the cooks have a base group with others coming and going over the 
years, Pete does the whole thing year after year!

Again, Thanks Pete

now) held in Memphis, TN, where his family is.
 
I agree, it was a nice memorial at TCR.  Thanks to Paul and Katherine and 
whomever else was involved.

Just checking in to see if there is any new info as to services for Rod and to 
thank whoever set up the memorial for him at TCR.
It was very thoughtful, beautiful, touching, and well done.
He would be most pleased.
 
Thanks, 
Mark

And in the not too distant future, one will be able to read all 50+
years of The TEXAS CAVER on this site, as well.

A big thanks goes to George Veni for spearheading this effort.

Soon after I started caving, I became interested in reading AMCS
newsletters. But it was
not easy for me to get my hands on an issue.I usually had to buy
one once a year at TCR,
in order to get the privilege to read it.But I was a college
student on a very tight budget.  So,
it took me several years to get caught up on all the speleo-history of
the AMCS.

Today's new cavers don't realize how lucky they are.

Many issues are view-able online as PDF's, and can be saved on your
iPad, or e-Reader.

I look forward to the day, when I have a portable gadget where I can
easily manage
and retrieve all the cool caving information that has saturated the
internet.A creative caver
could sell a caver-modified iPad at the next NSS Convention that is
pre-loaded with
Speleo-Bloatware.That would be so awesome. How much extra would
you pay
for an iPad 2, that had built-in apps just for cavers ? And how
would it be different from a

[SWR] Fw: [azregion] Arizona Regional Association's Winter Technical Meeting! 28 Jan 2012

[big foote]

- Forwarded Message -
From: Sarah Truebe 


  
Hi cavers & cave friends,

I would like to formally solicit talks for this year's Winter Technical 
Presentations and Annual Meeting, on Saturday, January 28, 2012, all day. That 
sounds like it's far away, but it is a mere 3.5 MONTHS!! Get your projects and 
trips in gear so you have something to talk about. Email me with your name and 
a title to get on the program. Please feel free to forward to anyone who might 
be interested in attending or presenting.

This year's ARA WT will be in the ENRB Room 253/Catalina Room (that's upstairs 
in the USGS/NWS building on the NE corner of 6th and Park: 520 N. Park Ave, 
Tucson, AZ 85719).  Maps and directions will shortly be posted on the ARA 
website. 

Anyone and everyone is welcome to present a technical project, slideshow, trip 
report, musical performance, etc.  Also, we will be electing new ARA board 
members at the meeting, so show up if you want a say in the Arizona region's 
cave happenings. 

Finally, I am taking suggestions for a keynote speaker - ideally someone from 
around Arizona who might just be traveling through and want to give a talk. 
Contact me if you have any cool ideas.  

That's all from me for now.  Let me know if you have any questions, concerns, 
or comments. And send me those talk titles!!

Cheers,
Sarah
ARA Vice Chair

[SWR] Fw: [azregion] Arizona Regional Association's Winter Technical Meeting! 28 Jan 2012

[big foote]

- Forwarded Message -
From: Sarah Truebe 


  
Hi cavers & cave friends,

I would like to formally solicit talks for this year's Winter Technical 
Presentations and Annual Meeting, on Saturday, January 28, 2012, all day. That 
sounds like it's far away, but it is a mere 3.5 MONTHS!! Get your projects and 
trips in gear so you have something to talk about. Email me with your name and 
a title to get on the program. Please feel free to forward to anyone who might 
be interested in attending or presenting.

This year's ARA WT will be in the ENRB Room 253/Catalina Room (that's upstairs 
in the USGS/NWS building on the NE corner of 6th and Park: 520 N. Park Ave, 
Tucson, AZ 85719).  Maps and directions will shortly be posted on the ARA 
website. 

Anyone and everyone is welcome to present a technical project, slideshow, trip 
report, musical performance, etc.  Also, we will be electing new ARA board 
members at the meeting, so show up if you want a say in the Arizona region's 
cave happenings. 

Finally, I am taking suggestions for a keynote speaker - ideally someone from 
around Arizona who might just be traveling through and want to give a talk. 
Contact me if you have any cool ideas.  

That's all from me for now.  Let me know if you have any questions, concerns, 
or comments. And send me those talk titles!!

Cheers,
Sarah
ARA Vice Chair

There were a few people who paid their registration fee while (essentially)
standing in line. There were no wrist bands available at the time so a few
people may have appeared to not have paid but I don't think there was anyone
in line who didn't pay.

I'm just now catching up on Cavetex, but I'm happy to see there are plans
for another Mapping Workshop.  I found the walk-throughs, especially for
drafting new maps, extremely useful and informative.  In addition, it was a
lot of fun!  Thanks to everyone for taking the time out to do this.

I definitely encourage people to attend the next one.

Re: [Texascavers] Rod Goke Update?

[Don Cooper]

I happened upon the tent/shrine while trying to find my way back to
camp, in the wee hours of the morning - quite a surreal and deeply
moving experience.
My heartfelt appreciation also to those who put it together.
It meant a lot to me to have a way to say "goodbye".

Re: [Texascavers] TCR Cooks thanks...

[Gill Edigar]

There were a few people who paid their registration fee while (essentially)
standing in line. There were no wrist bands available at the time so a few
people may have appeared to not have paid but I don't think there was anyone
in line who didn't pay.

[Texascavers] RE: Rod Goke Update?

[Jim Kennedy]

It was posted on CaveTex about a week ago.  Services will be (or maybe
WERE by now) held in Memphis, TN, where his family is.

 

I agree, it was a nice memorial at TCR.  Thanks to Paul and Katherine
and whomever else was involved.

Just checking in to see if there is any new info as to services for Rod

It was very thoughtful, beautiful, touching, and well done.

He would be most pleased.

[Texascavers] a cool caver-type project

[Herman Miller]

PpI am not for or against but I just feel the changing environment around
the hot tub is a sign of a changing demographic of the "Texas Caver.". I
noticed a few years ago the "Aggie explosion" that began a changing of the
guards if you would.  While the ASS represents a growing percentage of Texas
cavers, they also represent a group of cavers that are both casual and
transient.  I feel the large influx has eroded some of the tradition that
being a Texas Caver represents.  For the casual Caver they may never know
what it's like to come out of a cave soaking wet on new years day with you

would be completely pointless to get everything wet.

I think we should welcome every caver with open armswell not the best
words but you understand.  We all eventually cave to the greater culture
which is that of the Texas Caver!!!
