governor's stables is a PRIVATE climbing area
you MUST be either in the comp (which gives you membership to the PAC)
or a member of the PAC
GS is closed to members for climbing the weekend of the comp...for obvious reasons
our insurance costs are around $7,000.00
and on top of that we lease this land from 6 different people
we don't EVEN come close to raising that from the comp
NO...you can't climb if you are not in the comp that weekend
all of those people who are supporting josh, randy, mike and myself...for trying desperately to hang unto this place we applaud you!!
thanks for all stepping up to the plate
IF more of you did from the state (not mentioning names here)
we would be able to possibly open safe harbor and sex wall
again...it takes more than a handful of dedicated ppl from PA to pull this off
yes...this is centrally located
but then so are the active members....
i'm not trying to bithc or complain...guilt?? prolly!!
GET involved!
we can make a difference
i'll be moving out of the state
i was very apprehensive about taking on such a high profile position knowing my future plans
but...i owe it to my fellow pennsylvanian's
i want to leave my mark...do you????

Sorry for not getting back to you. If you have paid your registration fee, then consider yourself a member of the PAC and you are welcome at the clean ups (whenever the weather gets better and we can have them). Other folks should contact me directly if they want to participate in a clean-up but are not PAC members.

If you have paid your registration fee, then consider yourself a member of the PAC and you are welcome at the clean ups (whenever the weather gets better and we can have them). Other folks should contact me directly if they want to participate in a clean-up but are not PAC members. Josh
[Randy's Opinion, Obersvations, and Analysis]
Josh, given the PAC --may I say-- struggling or maybe renassiance-like state, why not allow everyone and their mom to come to something like a clean-up? If its for the G.S. Comp, 1) they'll be doing much needed work, and 2) I guareentee that once they see that place-- given they're a climber, my mommy doesn't climb-- that they'll pay that 45 bucks in a heartbeat.
Please, if anything changes in the new PAC, don't make it so exclusive to those looking on from the other side of the fence (non-PAC climbers). Such a statement as "only PAC members" may be chopping off future activists.
For example, what if I'd bring along my three non-PAC buddies, whom I'm ranted and raved about the climbing at GS since the first comp. Still hestitant of shelling out the 45 beans, they come along, get a good taste of climber activism and 1) become a member, and more importantly, 2) have a positive first experience of both the acceptness of the PAC AND of actively participating in PAC events (clean-up, access intiatives, etc.)
[/Randy's Opinion]
So I wish you the best of luck as you lead the PAC into the exciting times of the future. God Bless.

Randy--
I agree with what you are saying. The reason I made the statement above is that my concern lies in the difference between allowing anyone to showup for a cleanup (and most likely also doing some bouldering once we're done) and allowing anyone to show up anytime to climb. For example, yes, we'de love for you to join us for a clean up and to bring all your friends who want to learn more about GS. However, you cannot bring your friends on any given day to just show them around. The reason I asked people to contact me is so I could explain this. So, in conclusion. Yes, the general public is invited to the clea-ups. However, to climb at GS on another day you must be a member. Most people do not realize the HUGE costs that go into keeping this place open.
Josh

Well, I guess ya'll can count me in for the comp as well. I'll be sending in my registration soon, but I'll definetly be competing. Have you guys set up the divisions yet and all that? I was just curious to see what they were. Guess this means I should get off my lazy butt and go do some climbing...

Ha...seriously! But, of course, it's always better to go away from a comp with no regrets knowing you climbed the best that you could...so yeah, i should too!

Thanks Kimmy and Josh. Looks like I may be able to qualify for Intermediate if I can get out and climb beforehand. Can't wait! This will be a great warm-up for NRP!

If people want to video tape competitors climb, is that allowed? I was asked this on another site where I have the comp posted at.

i think what you're trying to ask is if others can come to video tape or take picts of the event? Is there a media/onlooking fee?
