York Grotto

The York Grotto is a local chapter (an Internal Organization) of the National Speleological Society (NSS). We consist mostly of cavers from the York-Lancaster-Harrisburg area, but welcome cavers from anywhere. We are committed to the study, enjoyment and preservation of caves.

We conduct hands-on training and field trips to orient new members to the equipment, safety procedures, methods and precautions necessary for the successful exploration and conservation of these limited and fragile natural resources. We have a library of cave related books, publications, and maps. We have a long history of working with youth groups, Venture Crews, and BSA Troops.

Our meetings, which typically start with a caving-related program or presentation, are open to anyone interested in caving. Please join us at 6:00 p.m. the last Tuesday of most months.

The York Grotto will hold our May 26 meeting at 6pm in the meeting room at the Steak Diner. Come at 5:30 for food if you wish.

Located at: 146 Sheraton Dr New Cumberland, PA 17070

The meeting may or may not be hosted virtually, depending on connection availability.
