Indiana Grotto

Websitehttps://www.bloomingtonindianagrotto.home.blog
AddressBloomington, IN
Description

The Bloomington Indiana Grotto (BIG) is a local nonprofit under the National Speleological Society. We meet every 2nd Thursday of the month at 7:30 p.m. For meeting locations and presentation information, please visit our website or join our Facebook page.

We encourage responsible  caving practices, work with landowners and others to ensure good conservation efforts which can affect areas as important as keeping our ground water clean. The grotto can host work days to clean up karst areas and we love to share information to anyone interested in caving so that they have proper gear to keep themselves safe. We accept all levels of experience and hope to reach out to anyone interested in this great activity.

If you are a landowner with a possible cave on your property and want to know more about it--or ways to keep animals safe that live in or around it--we would love to talk with you. Please email us and someone will touch within a few days.
