The November campout is November 14-16 at Inner Space Cavern in Georgetown!
Hidden for over 10,000 years, Inner Space Cavern is one of the best-preserved caves in Texas. It was discovered by a Texas Highway Department core drilling team in the spring of 1963 and was opened to the public in the summer of 1966. Since that time, hundreds of thousands of visitors have seen this beautiful cave.

The amazing cave has beautiful formations, large rooms, prehistoric animal bones, and a truly unique discovery story. It remains a constant 72 degrees (but feels like 80 degrees with the humidity) year-round and it does NOT flood during rains.
Inner Space offers 2 different tours, and the Geology merit badge.

The Geology merit badge class will be conducted before the tours at 10:00AM for 2.5 hours and is $20. If a scout is interested in this merit badge, please notate in the Notes section of the RSVP. There is a 5-scout minimum for the Geology merit badge class.
The standard tour is the Hidden Passage tour. It is open to scouts of all ages, and the campout fee includes this tour option.
For more adventurous scouts age 13+, the Wild Cave tour involves crawling, climbing, and squeezing through small areas. This tour option has a $40 surcharge, interested scouts should notate this tour in the Notes section of the RSVP.

We will close reservations for this campout on November 3 to provide headcounts to Inner Space. Please register early.
Campout Cost $60 per person. Wild Cave adds an additional $40 per person. Geology merit badge adds $20 per person. Please indicate in the RSVP Notes if you will be doing any of the extra cost programs.
