Title: Thurs Night Trip - 4th Sept 2014 - Hendre Spar Mine
Post by: Tony Salusbury on Aug 30, 2014, 11:32 AM
We have a couple of newcomers coming next week and week after so here are trip details.

Trip: Hendre Spar Mine

Type: Mooch around introducing new peeps to the underworld.

Meet Time: 6.30pm

Meet Place: Royal Oak pub car park (far end), Hendre. (Map to follow)


If you know anyone who would like to come along these next 2 weeks are the ideal time. I'll be posting on our UCET facebook page. Might be a good idea to post these next 2 trips on our own social media sites inviting anyone who's interested to come along. The following week we will be going to Poacher's Cave.

but don't be in any rush! Do a few more trips with borrowed gear first to see how much you like it!

I had to nip straight off to see another caver who i'd promised to meet who was working on a dig, but it was great to have you with us. Hopefully see you underground in a couple of weeks time when i get back from my 'holiday home'. Tony and others will keep you right with upcoming trips - keep an eye on here and/or emails etc.

If you let tony know when you next available thursday eve is he'll ensure theres a suitable trip on for a second taster!
