Speleofest is a caving event hosted by the members of the Louisville Grotto Club. Check out the website for more information and on line registration: http://louisville.caves.org/Speleofest.html :clap:

Caving event in Bonnieville, Ky. which is 1 1/2 hours north of Nashville, TN and about an hour south of Louisville, KY off Interstate 65. The property is known as Lone Star Preserve which is approximately 68 acres and owned by the Louisville Grotto. The proceeds of the event will go to help maintain and improve Lone Star Preserve so when you attend the event you get all the items listed below as well as helping out to preserve and protect Karst!

Since KY is in the USFWS Moratorium area has speleofest set forth any policies yet?
I'm not scared of the dark, it's the things IN the dark that make me nervous. :)

i've heard that the caves on the grounds of the LSP will be open, but some statements from the louisville grotto/speleofest coordinators would be great!
