A short intro
In 1954 The Sydney Speleological Society started out with about forty people. Since then the society has made valuable contrubutions to conservation, exploration and the documentation of Karst regions throughout New South Wales.
Our Society offers its members a structured organization that coordinates caving activities in all of its forms. From sport caving to the abstract cave sciences one can find the help and encouragement as needed within the Society. Our membership consist of honorary, life and full members. Most of our activities are open to visitors but we expect regulars to join our Society sooner than later
We depend on membership and visitors fees to maintain our society. All fees are determined at the societies Annual General Meeting each year.

How to Join
Are you interested in caving?
If you are interested in caving or simply want to get involved in something different then why not join us?
Don't worry !
We are not all scientific or technical types. Most of us simply enjoy caving. Caves are a limited and sometimes easily damaged resource. The presence of knowledgeable people in the Society means we can go on caving without damaging the caves through ignorance. Most of us have increased our general knowledge of a wide variety of subjects just by rubbing shoulders with the specialists.
