Re: [Texascavers] Louise Power

2018-11-22 Thread Dwight Deal
Louise Power was a very active Texas caver in the 1970s (Carta Velley and more) 
and later, a BLM employee who did her best to encourage reasonable use and 
preservation of  karst and cave resources.  For those who remember Louise, Carl 
Kunath immortalized her on page 364 of 50 Years of Texas Caving, under the 
heading Tortuga's Secret.

Maybe you meant Louise Hose folks. 

Louise Power also is a dear old friend and member of Carta Valley Sucks. So sad 
to hear Louise Power is gone. She did a lot if good work for the land at BLM.  
A great gal. 

Louise Hose is a honored geologist, pilot, and former NCKRI director.

Knew her in her Austin days. She was indeed a caver and kept at it. Another
person who went to the Great Sky Cave. So sorry.

New BSA Caving Policy & Training: "Cave Safely Cave Softly" Presenters: Allen 
Maddox & Debbie Spoons

Join us for a webinar on Dec 04, 2018 at 8:00 PM CST, which is, 9PM EST/ 7PM 
MST/ 6PM PST. Please check your time zone for correct starting time.
Register now!



Allen Maddox, NSS Youth Group Liaison Chairman and Debbie Spoons, NSS-BSA 
Liaison & BSA National Climbing & COPE Committee member will be the presenters.

As of April 2018, BSA has a new national caving policy and training program

Cave Safely, Cave Softly is the Boy Scouts of America’s procedure for 
organizing BSA activities in commercial and noncommercial caves or lava tubes

If you are involved with scouts and caving, then you NEED to watch this 
webinar, for the protection of the youth, yourself and your liabilities.

BSA now requires that all leaders and participants that will be part of a BSA 
caving trip must read and understand the new policy and training information.

We will discuss the details of a “qualified trip leader, what age groups are 
allowed to enter a wild cave, how many “qualified trip leaders” are required 
for each group, the requirements for horizontal VS vertical caves, etc.

We know that people have a lot of questions and we will do our best to answer 
them.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information 
about joining the webinar.
