Hosted by Hester Mellonee (Cascade Grotto), this group included three small children WVG members and two adults. The children were: Andrew Cook, 10 years; Isaac Bauman, 8 year; and Rebekah Bauman, 7 years. The group collected water from the cave to wash formations free from debris carried in by visitors. Formations gleamed after the crew was done. Mallonee gave the group a tour of the entire cave which included her amazing repairs of the caves flowstone. What a way to teach children about conservation! Thank you so much Hester for educating the next generation of cavers!
