We'd love to come down from GA and meet people. Anyone planning to camp, or is this usually a local crowd?

It is not a local event, but I quit camping at Ginnie years ago, because of the noisy drunks.

There will be divers there from the Midwest and Puerto Rico at least. We will be camping to take advantage of the double dip as well as the post dive soda pops and no DD needed factor.

I guess I need to call her again. We talked about the Little Devil pavilion. GSO can't decide what to call the various pavilions. "Devil's Eye pavilion" is the one down by the Devi's Eye Spring. Or sometimes it's the one up by Little Devil Spring. Regardless of what they call it, we want the one near the bath houses.

Are we doing the Galaxy dive in the Ball Room (Ginnie) or down at the eye or ear?

Hi all, when do you usually start? And are non CDF folks allowed, like my wife. Or are non cave divers allowed? Like my friends that are training still gor tgeor cave certs? If so, can we stop by, and what should we bring? I dive their often, but not sure I personally know many folks other than seeing them pass by? Thanks.

Everyone is welcome, even non divers. You will have to tell the people at the Ginnie desk that you are there for the Cave Divers Forum event to get the 2 day for one day price deal.

I plan to arrive at 8am, but we may not get totally set up before 10am.
