About Us
Central Oklahoma Grotto is a non-profit organization and a chapter of the NSS (National Spelelogical Society), 6001 Pulaski Pike
Huntsville, AL 35810-1122 and is dedicated to cave conservation and safety. Cave softly and safely.
The Central Oklahoma Grotto was chartered in 1967. We join caving trips from across the western part of the state. We have been a surveying grotto for many years. More recently we have been revisiting some of our previously surveyed caves to introduce our newer and younger members to gypsum caving at its finest. We have been assisting local college biology departments by conducting bat counts for over 20 years.
The Grotto
Friendships
Lifelong friendships are built. We have been known to travel together to see commercial caves and do service projects in caves.
Exploration
We have explored and mapped wild caves in Oklahoma.
Conservation
We conduct bat counts in the state and when asked we swab bats for national research of White Nose Syndom.
