Welcome to the Caving Club at Indiana University!

The CCIU provides students, faculty, staff and community members the opportunity to crawl around in holes in the ground while practicing cave conservation. Our monthly trips offer members of all abilities the opportunity to enjoy a safe caving experience with qualified guides. We even provide a helmet and light for the novice!

Next Meeting: Thursday, March 7, 7:30 pm in Geology 126

We meet the first Thursday of every month at 7:30pm in Geology Rm. 126 (except for May through August). Our meetings have programs on a wide array of cave-related subjects. We encourage our members to share their caving experiences and offer input on what the club does.

Dues are $10 per calendar year. These dues include use of club gear (helmets and helmet-mounted lights) and the opportunity to go on CCIU-led caving trips. You must be a paid member prior to participating in any club trips.

What's new...

On Thursday, February 7, Sam Frushour will be presenting on Sullivan Cave. Don't miss this chance to hear one of the original explorers talk about Indiana's 3rd longest cave (and the 76th longest in the US). There will be lots of great photos and historical tidbits.

The club t-shirts are here and look great! Please contact Chris Parks, cparks@indiana.edu, if you are interested in purchasing a club t-shirt. They are available in Black, Grey, Green and Brown, in S, M, L and XL, and cost $15.
