Marengo Cave Overnight March 5—rsvp early and no later than FRI FEB 25

Calling all cavers! Troop 216 will be returning to Marengo Cave in Indiana
on March 5th for an overnight stay in the cave. Our Night-in-Cave package
includes a pizza supper, breakfast, and most importantly, natural cave
exploration and guided tours with exciting activities.

The permission and waiver forms may be turned in at any Monday meeting
in February; however, please note there is no meeting on Presidents Day Feb
21. Please message Mrs. Gill up until 5pm Friday Feb 25th to indicate you
will attend IF you have not already submitted the forms at a prior meeting.

We encourage Scouts and parents to sign up early for this memorable
experience as we need a *minimum* of 12 participants and multiple
drivers, PLUS it is an impressive and unique adventure you don’t want to
miss. The drive is just over 3 1/2 hours and they are one hour ahead of
our central time.

For more information, see the Marengo Cave website here

A signed waiver is required for anyone entering the cave waiver here

Please read the waiver (also attached below) and permission form for the
list of important things to know, wear and bring. It is a comfortable 52
degrees year-round underground but we will get very wet and muddy. A clean
dry change of clothes and shoes is necessary. Please bring either a sack
lunch or lunch money for our meal stop before getting to the cave.

If any questions or concerns or to sign up (no later than Feb 25), please
contact Diane Gill 618 616 6774 diane.gill67@gmail.com
