It's been said that showing up is 90 percent of the battle. Over the

You're way too early on the inception of the current TSA Land Fund. It
did not exist before the 1994 NSS Convention. The fund was created with

Texas NSS Convention Committee for hosting the convention in that year

Knowing that Peter had battled cancer privately all these years is yet
another testament to this giant of Texas caving. He had uncommon strength
of character, was a role model for how to do just about *anything* the
right way - and was an unforgettable force in regional, national and

Fully agree, Galen. The reality is that current NSS regs don't permit
posthumous awards. Knowing that the petition is designed to overcome that,
we still may need to folow up with more of a full-court press in hopes of
