CAVES AND CAVING -
A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION

This program is a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation on CD ROM, which is an introduction to caves and caving and the National Speleological Society. After a short introduction, the program presents a light hearted 'top 10 list' on common misconceptions the general public has about caves. It goes on to list common myths people have about bats. The next section provides some facts about the NSS and then goes into some detail about the different cave preserves the NSS is involved in. Next, a number of slides deal with caves and conservation and ecological issues. The rest of the program is a pictorial presentation on horizontal and vertical caving. This program is perfect for giving caving talks at service clubs, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, youth groups, and so forth.
