The map link from FW shows Stone River Mall Circle Blvd., when in fact the street signs say "Robert Rose Drive." They are one and the same street for the little bit the dive shop is on. The old circle blvd used to circle the old mall, but when it was rebuilt bigger and larger, Robert Rose Drive was added to intersect with the older Mall Circle Blvd.
Take Exit 78B off I-24 and after crossing bridge over interstate take a left at the second light onto Thompson Lane. Second traffic light on Thompson Lane (past McDonalds, past Walmart) is where you turn Right onto Robert Rose Drive. It curves a bit and comes to the Dive Shop on your right - You can see Dillard's on around the curve, but if you pass Dillard's, you went too far.
Another feature to note is that the Dive Shop sets behind the Home Depot.

2nd Suggestion
Okay, after surveying this weekend and thinking about this class, let me make another suggestion- It would help a lot if everyone shows up with their own book. You will need one anyway, so here is a great way to start. You can bring other materials to build your book, but you will eventually end up with this, so start the right way.
First- you need a good binder for waterproof paper. Rite in the Rain makes good, cheap binders. You want the 6 ring binder designed for 4 5/8 x 7" paper, preferably the 1/2 inch size.

You can usually find these in outdoors or military supply places, usually with a bunch of rite in the rain paper in them, or you can buy them direct. Don't bother buying the paper, I will show you which paper you want to buy in class. We will be using cave survey specific Rite in the Rain paper in class.
Second, you want to get a cave protractor-

The 3" size is best, I would suggest the 1" equals 20' scale.
And lastly, find some automatic pencils- and some rubber bands

That should be it!
