WCU Outdoor Club Caving Trip Num 1

West Chester University is a community college in Chester County, PA. This is the county I live in so it seemed to make sense to get students from WCU underground.

I have taken the WCU EARTH Club caving a couple times (http://www.youcave.org/2016/11/west-chester-university-caving-trip.html), but this was the first time with the Outdoor Club (https://www.facebook.com/WcuOutdoorsClub/).

Kara is part of the Dragon Breath Grotto. She’s a member of the Outdoor club and made the introductions. Heather worked hard to pull the whole thing together. One glitch we ran into was that there were way too many people interested in going caving. Solution for this was to have two separate trips on two separate weekends. This was the first trip. The second one is coming up soon.

These guys were amazing. They took everything I could throw are them and then some. Four and a half hours underground. For beginners they did very well.

Check out the video and see the fun.


We also did a Mannequin Challenge which was fun. Check it out, too.
