Executive Committee (EC) members organize monthly presentations, events, trainings, trips, and the day to day organization of the grotto.
The EC is elected by grotto membership annually. Committee members must be members of the National Speleological Society, and are subject to two year term limits. Other committee positions are long lived and turn over organically.
