* 34th BCRA Cave Science Symposium - 21 October
This year's Science Symposium will be at the University of Leeds, on Saturday 21 October, organised by Simon Bottrell. On Sunday 22nd October there will be a field excursion, led by Phil Murphy, to include Gillfield Level at Greenhow and caves of Nidderdale. There is no charge for these events but donations are requested to support the running costs, particularly from participants in the Gillfield level visit who will be asked to make a small contribution towards the costs of maintaining access to this important part of our underground heritage.
CALL FOR PAPERS: Anyone wishing to present a paper or poster at the symposium or who has any other queries should contact the programme organiser, Simon Bottrell. See http://bcra.org.uk/contact.html
