Meeting Notes August 14th, 2012 The August Meeting of the PBSS open at 7:02pm, 10 minutes after a opinionated and probably near sighted individual commented to Tony and I about the size of the table we were occupying. He obviously missed the sign that indicated the table was reserved for the club and probably didn't know the meeting was not yet at hand. I guess sometimes people speak and don't think, or speak after thinking... only their thoughts are a little on the short side of intelligent. Anyway. The table did in fact fill up with Walter, Bill, Tony, Patrick and Matthew all in attendance. Walter gave a financial report. Currently $800.79 resides in the clubs account. Bill addressed an upcoming PBOC trip to Amazing Maze. The trip will be on September 22nd and Bill and Jacqui and anyone else I presume that wants to will lead a group of people from the outdoor club to and through parts of Amazing Maze. Matthew gave a report on the recent trip to Wen Cave and Christmas Tree Cave in CCNP. Bill gave some history on the caves and recent pictures from the trip were shown on a laptop. Trips to Chimney and Helen's Cave were discussed and will be planned in the not to distant future. Patrick commented a recent job change should allow him to make more caving trips. Bill gave a report on the National Convention. He gave more of a report on the storm than the actual convention but lamented that those earning awards were not appropriately recognized because the distraction that the storm presented. A large portion of the meeting was spent discussing access to a large cave in West Texas. Prior to the meeting much time had been spent trying to figure out if the PBSS might establish a relationship with the West Texas land owner. At meeting time we were hopeful to get into the cave. Since meeting time we have learned that relationships with the landowner are very dynamic and access will be tricky. The meeting closed at 7:41.
