[Texascavers] UT/USS Grotto Meeting 7/29!

2015-07-27 Thread Mimi Alexander via Texascavers
Greetings, cavers!

At the grotto meeting this Wednesday, Aubri Jenson will be giving a brief
overview of a research project on the morphology and genetics of Central
Texas amphipods!

The meeting, hosted by the University Speleological Society, is at 7:45pm
in Painter 2.48. Follow this link to a map of where the building is located
on the University of Texas campus:
http://www.utexas.edu/maps/main/buildings/pai.html

For information on Underground Texas Grotto activities, please see
www.utgrotto.org

Officer contact, trip reports, event calendar, and new caver training links
to beginner trips or vertical rope training are available.

Before the meeting, take advantage of Sao Paulo www.saopaulos.net for happy
hour specials. Attendance by cavers varies but this area is the best place
to park and meet folks walking over to the meeting. Then after the USS
meeting, we continue with the decades long tradition to reconvene for
burgers, beer, and tall tales of caving at Posse East.www.posse-east.com

If you would like to be a speaker at a future grotto meeting, or know
someone else who might be interested (or who could be persuaded/bribed)
please contact me.

Cheers,
Mimi Alexander
UT Grotto Vice Chair

Sorry for the typo. I expect most people will look at the flyer and focus on 
the date there.

Dear Friends,

I've received many announcements to send and have combined them into this one 
message.
