NEW SCCi WEB SITE!

Postby roger_haley » Mar 10, 2009 12:27 pm

Thanks to some hard work by some amazing people you have GOT to check
out the new SCCi web site at:
www.scci.org

Thanks to Jenifer, Sabrina, Bill and Ron!!!!

The Southeastern Cave Conservancy, Inc. (SCCi) is a tax-exempt not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation dedicated to cave acquisition, conservation, and management. The SCCi currently owns or leases 27 preserves, 63 caves, on 1,216 acres of land in six southeastern states. We are interested in caves anywhere in the southeastern US that need protection or management for conservation or access reasons. The SCCi is particularly interested in caves that are threatened with closure or destruction or those which provide a habitat for endangered species such as the Gray Bat, Tennessee Cave Salamander, or Hart's Tongue Fern. Our mission is to preserve caves and cave environments and to manage them responsibly.

I was just going to report this also. I just hit the link at an EPA workstation and got my hand slapped for attempting to go to a forbidden web site. Gotta check it out tonight at home and see what the fuss is about.

The page looks great but the link you posted has one too many "c's"

Try this - http://scci.org/

New SCCi website looks fantastic!

I've got one suggestion, however: All the preserve pages have the following warning:

NOTICE: To help prevent the spread of the deadly White Nose Syndrome (WNS) cavers should take all reasonable and necessary precautions to avoid carrying mud, water, or other substances from one cave to another.


Would you consider rephrasing this statement so a local newspaper doesn't pick it up and start reporting that WNS is killing people?!

Great work on the website! What a fantastic compliment to the work that the SCCi does for the caving community!

Don't forget to check out the donation page!

Maybe a lot of beer totin' spelunkers will stay home if they think they might die of WNS.
