Before, Les Rhinolophes was a small club that lived very little and very often. The outputs were not regular and always in small groups. There are few times when club outings were organized. Everyone lived on their own wishes. Then, gradually, the structure evolved with the arrival of new members: younger, more dynamic and eager to know, these small new ones have restored new youth to the club. In addition, with the birth of inter-mural alliances, the association has been able to evolve into larger-scale spéléologiques projects. Today, club outings are organised more regularly and days are punctuated by the experience and services of each. Thanks to the different competences of the members, the club also multiplied its activities (caving, canyon, underground diving, désobstruction, initiation…. Nevertheless, the association remains a small structure that has only one desire: continue to live in serenity.
