    Default Cave Diving Museum is closed

    The museum has been moved out of Cave Excursions East and into my shed. It will be reopening soon. I plan to buy an old Travel Trailer and remodel it for a mobile display. Anyone who donates can have their name on the outside or any large contributors can put signs etc. on the outside. The museum can then be taken to Springs festivals, Cave Diving events, or parked at different host shops. We are non profit organization so any donations are tax deductions. I really feel this will be a great way to increase the interest in cave diving and it's history.
    Many thanks to Al Heck who worked all day helping me move the equipment.
    Please contact me if you have any interest in helping with this project. Cindy Butler 386-454-3977

    Where to send donations? And for a name, the donation is ? And for a "sign" the donation is ? just ballpark figures on what is considered small/large.

    Call me or send a donation. I am still trying to figure out ad costs. It's negotiable at this point. Say a 30 foot trailer. The back end would be $1000. A five foot wide bottom to top of the trailer would be $500, half that area $300, small ads $175, advertisers would have to paint the area or provide a decal etc., your name or the stores name on an area by the doors $100. The checks should be made out to the Cave Diving Museum and Library. Sent to Cindy Butler, 121 SW Mystical Dr., Fort White, FL 32038 Any donation will be appreciated.

    Thank you for all your hard work on the cave diving museum. I aways enjoyed showing new cave divers the equipment that I started with. And survived.

    It will be back Bill. All it needs is a little green and tincture of time.
