This winter, Cadettes, Seniors, Ambassadors and their adult volunteers are invited to take on an exhilarating cave diving and spelunking challenge deep within Lost World Caverns! This guided, hands-on adventure takes you into the darker, tighter, muddier sections of the caverns- perfect for older Girl Scouts ready for a true high-adventure experience. You'll learn the basics of safe caving, navigate unique underground terrain, and discover formations few visitors ever get to see up close.

The fee includes all gear- helmets, lights, ropes, etc., and lunch and snacks needed along the way.

What to know about this event:

1. This is a physically demanding activity suitable for Cadettes and older.
2. Dress for adventure-long sleeves, pants you don't mind getting dirty, and sturdy footwear.
3. Cavern temperatures remain a steady 65°F year-round, but you will get muddy!
4. Adult volunteers attending should be prepared to participate alongside the girls.
5. This is a four-hour deep cave dive adventure.

6. This experience is open to Juniors who are 10 years old by the date of the event and older Girl Scouts.

Push your limits, explore deeper, and experience the underground world in a whole new way. Let's spelunk!
