Membership in the grotto requires payment of annual dues and entitles you to receive the Electric Caver, partake in all Grotto activities, and use Grotto material. Unless a grotto member is a NSS member they are considered an associate member and cannot vote or hold office within the Grotto. Since the Grotto is a local chapter of the NSS membership is strongly advised.

Regular meetings of GCG are held on the first Friday of every month at 7:30 p.m. on the campus of the University of Cincinnati. The meetings are regularly held in Lindner Hall, room 112 (as shown in the map below). Check the calendar in case there are changes.

Following each meeting is an informative program. These programs range from slide shows of a members recent cave trip, or a technical demonstration of some specific apparatus, to a lecture by a guest speaker on subjects appropriate to Speleology.

Following each General meeting and program, there is a social gathering at one of the member's home. At these parties most of the recent caving experiences are the topic of discussion, as well as the planning of future trips. All members' guests, Grotto members or not are cordially invited to attend these parties.
