A huge thank you to everyone that turned out to our Robber Baron Cave <https://www.facebook.com/groups/114916969202443/?ref=gs&fref=gs&dti=46868704142&hc_location=group> open house! We officially had 749 people visit the cave with many more stopping by to visit the information booths on the surface.
A big thanks goes to our fellow conservation organizations that came out to share their great work with our visitors.

TCMA is an all volunteer organization and we are solely funded through our donors and members. We raised approximately $7k dollars which will make a significant contribution towards our mission of Cave and Karst Conservation in Texas. That's nearly 1/3 of our yearly budget! None of this would have been possible with out the dedication of our wonderful volunteers. A huge thanks to everyone who volunteered their time. Folks traveled from as far away as Houston and Austin to help out. Special recognition goes to Lindsey Adamoski <https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=7942048&fref=gs&__tn__=%2CdK-R-R&eid=ARAmEv4Vi6zJML7_nuYbqbzPxUBIWAgrXr4_PnB5w3MKEVxhv8bRSrIDfGk1BvBHLv_rObeLNYQuMiPP&dti=46868704142&hc_location=group> for spearheading the effort and our preserve managers Mike Harris and Joe Mitchell <https://www.facebook.com/joe.mitchell.75491?fref=gs&__tn__=%2CdK-R-R&eid=ARBujg-qFIrtZVzR6Jdq_syjnuJC7a3Sqg-1ogPnL9K2CLhkzmJDWLGYyhT_pCaKtcQ4A1reb3U1va04&dti=46868704142&hc_location=group> !
