We do NOT self-dispatch, so if you require cave rescue, please contact your local emergency services (typically 911) and be sure to ask that the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) request our aid. You are welcome to contact us about your situation after you contact emergency services, but bear in mind we are not allowed on scene until our presence is requested by the AHJ.

Meetings are held on the Third Tuesday of each month, except in December when we have a Christmas Party.

Monthly meetings are held at the National Speleological Society in the winter, and Three Caves Quarry in the summer.

We also do weekly hands-on training sessions.
