Next dig date is the weekend of July 20th. I will be at fire school that 
week and cannot be at the dig.

Steve Peerman, dig leader, posted the following this morning:

<<Hi all!
We've got a Big Manhole dig scheduled for the weekend of July 19-20.  As I 
alway do, I'm sending out the notice two weeks in advance to let you know 
about the trip and try to get some idea of who can make it.  There is a 
possibility that Ron Lipinski may be bringing a GPR (Ground Penetrating 
Radar) unit down to do some analysis of the area this time.  If he does, he 
will likely come down on the Thursday-Friday beforehand, as he has a 
previous engagement on the weekend. And if he can bring it, there will 
likely be a number of us going on Thursday and Friday as well to assist.

However none of this is confirmed, as yet.

During the last dig we were able to narrow down the likely place for the 
"breakthrough" somewhat, and we feel we know where we need to go.  The GPR 
could possibly confirm that.  So, if you can make this trip, please let me 
know by Friday, July 12, so I can know what to expect.  If Ron gets the GPR 
we'll likely have a trip, even though we may not have the 12 or so people 
we'd like to get, but I would still like to know who's planning on coming. 
If Ron can't get the GPR, then we'll revert to the old plan of canceling the 
dig if not enough people can make it.
Also, if you think you might be able to come on Thursday and/or Friday to 
help out with the GPR work, let me know as well...
