Yup. The rock pile was the only thing that was giving me some excitement to go . Now that it's not gonna be available, I don't see any reason to go.

On a side note, I was thinkin about heading to orygon this year for the Binder Bee.

We could have used the rock pile had scouts west still been a member of cal4. I have given up on sw to make membership happen. After this year’s ihwr, I told the sw main chapter guys I would do the paperwork and re-apply for membership, but no response from them with information that I requested.
