Following recent news, we’ve had a sudden influx of requests to join our private member’s Facebook group. We would love to have you as a member!
To join our membership, please visit dogwoodcitygrotto.org.
1. Fill out a membership application
2. Pay member dues ($25/year)
3. Come introduce yourself at a meeting - we would like to meet you!
4. Your membership should be approved in the week following the meeting
5. If your membership isn’t approved by a week after the meeting, just reach out via email or our hotline and check in. We may have written your name down wrong or your application may not have fully processed in our system.
6. If you have submitted an application and are waiting for approval, it’s because we haven’t met you at one of our meetings yet. We anticipate that new members are joining because they want to participate in our events and community. We have meetings monthly, which alternate between in-person campouts and evening zoom calls. Meetings include short reports from officers, any business of the grotto requiring member vote, and a presentation on a caving topic. These meetings are open to members, but they are also open to guests who want to see what we’re about and to prospective members with new applications.
7. If you are having trouble accessing the private Facebook group, it is for one of two reasons - either you did not agree to the group rules or you are not a current member of the grotto.
Happy caving!
