All,
I received this after a cave talk I gave to a large contingent of adult Scout leaders a couple of weeks ago near Salado. Would anyone from the UT Grotto or elsewhere be interested in talking to these folks and taking them to Whirlpool Cave? They're from Buda, which is not close at all to Mesquite, where yours truly lives. Please email me and them, if you can help out. Only serious responses, please. No smart a** ones. Thanks!

I am a Venture Crew Advisor and work with our Scoutmaster for Crew/Troop 1913 in Buda, Texas. This afternoon I spoke with the other adult leaders, and we want to give our young men a positive caving experience. Ideally, we'd help them do the Venturing Badge for caving. http://meritbadge.org/wiki/index.php/Cave_Exploration_(Ranger_Award_elec tive). I'd like your help to find someone who can come teach our Scouts about Caving and help us do one outing. We want to take an hour on Wednesday, September 28 and another hour on Wednesday, October 5 to teach & prepare them, so they can go on a cave crawling experience either October 8th or November 5th. You suggested we look into going into some caves near William Cannon. That would be awesome because it's so close. Would you be interested in teaching us or do you recommend someone else who can?
