The 100th trip of the Government Canyon Karst Project will take place on the 5th and 6th of March. We will meet as usual at 9:00 on both days in the parking area of the Volunteer/Research Station to organize teams and objectives. On the evening of the 5th (Saturday) we will have a hog roast, awards ceremony, and presentation in celebration of the 100th project trip. The event will take place at the Volunteer/Research Station. All are invited to come. The hog will be provided courtesy of the Government Canyon Hog Hunters (feral hog eradication). A vegetarian entre will also be provided. Please bring a side dish and your own drinks. The meal will begin at 5:30.
Many participants will be camping at the volunteer campground nearby so bring your tent and join in the fun. Then go caving, digging, or ridgewalking on Sunday. Directions to the Government Canyon Karst Project: Find the intersection of U.S. 16 and Loop 1604 in northwest Bexar County (clearly shown on any state highway map). Drive 2 miles north on U.S. 16 to the third traffic light and turn left onto FM 1560 (there is a Shell station on the corner). Follow 1560 for 3 miles till you see the sign for GCSNA. Follow the arrow to the right and drive 2 more miles to the sharp left turn in the road. The gate to GCSNA is straight ahead. Enter at the gate and then take the first right. There is an unlocked gate that will need to be opened and then closed behind you. Continue to the Volunteer/Research Station, where we will meet. Marvin Miller (210) 415-5190
