TOUR THE WORLD FAMOUS CARLSBAD CAVERNS:(optional)
Friday Morning -- March 9th
Costs: Adults $6.00 (Children under 12 Free)
We will meet at the caverns just before 8:00 AM on Friday morning (Mar. 9th) for a self-guided tour. The cavern are 22 miles from town. Leave time for travel. Plan on leaving your hotel no later than 7:00 am. There are several tours available, all cost the same ($6, children twelve and under free). The only difference is the length of time and amount of walking. Plan on every bit of three hours in the caverns. Bring a flashlight and a light jacket or sweater, as the caverns can be cool (a constant temperature 50-60 degrees, but walking will keep you pretty warm!). We want everyone out before 11:30 am, so we will have time to eat lunch and start the conference by 1 PM Friday.
