Additional Information: Instructed by:
Come on over to Rockwoods Reservation for afternoon of Spelunking! We will begin this program in the classroom at the Rockwoods Education Center, where we will learn more about caves in Missouri, what kind of critters we might find in them, and why our cave ecosystems are so special! After about 45 minutes in the classroom, we will gear up in our helmets and knee pads and head to Bathtub Cave to do some exploring. **Note: You will have to crawl into the entrance and crawl in the cave. The very beginning of this cave is roughly 1 foot tall. Please dress appropriately for the weather and for 55-degree temperatures. Please wear pants and a long sleeve shirt that you do not mind getting dirty. An extra change of clothes, water, and a snack is recommended. Helmets and one flashlight will be provided. Please wear rubber boots as well and bring 2 additional sources of light (such as headlamps or flashlights). If large clusters of bats are encountered, the field trip portion will be cut short. Program will be canceled in inclement weather and rescheduled at a different date. Please register each person who attends to go into the cave individually. Others are welcome to tag along for the classroom portion only. Registration will open July 15th. ***Only the age range (7 and up) will be allowed in the cave.*** Samantha Mendoza
