2010 Regional


The 2010 NCA Regional will be September 3rd thru the 6th (Labor Day
weekend). Central Oregon is the location of the event and camping will be at
Crane Prarie Reservoir.
This page will be the main registration site. We should have registration
available by the end of May. Come back here for more details around that
time.
Currently, our grotto is looking to provide 3 lunches and 3 dinners,
guidebooks, t-shirts, patches, stickers, all in addition to some exciting cave
trips. Central Oregon isn't just cave country, but recreation country too! We
have volcanic mountains, national forests, the semi-desert, badlands
wilderness, lakes and rivers. All of these features offer rafting, fishing, bike
trails, hiking, rock climbing, OHV trails, and lots, lots more!
Hope to see you there this summer!

"The 2006 convention was hosted at beautiful Western Washington University. The university is located between Puget Sound and the Cascade Mountains, just outside of downtown Bellingham. Built with nature and beauty in mind this was a stunning backdrop for the 2006 NSS Convention.

Situated between Seattle, Washington and Vancouver, British Columbia, the spectacular natural environment of this region stretches from the San Juan Islands to Mt. Baker. Bellingham area and community offers recreational experiences from the relaxing to the exhilarating."

With cave trips, salons, sessions, vendors, and activies, the 2006 convention was awesome!

Mount St. Helens Pre-Convention CampoutPrince Albert Cave

(August 3-6, 2006)


On the weekend prior to the NSS convention, the Oregon Grotto hosted a campout on Mount St. Helens. This was primitive camping (no water or toilets), walking distance from caves and right at the base of a continuously erupting volcano. We camped Thurs, Fri and Sat nights with trips led on Fri, Sat and Sun. It was a great campout! Click here for more information.
