Hi Folks,

Your WOS Board will appear at the conference totally hairless after
today's stress over trip leaders, but you should be seeing some names
online very soon. The list, such as it stands at this moment, has been
submitted for inclusion to our Webmistress. Please know that we are
aware that trip decisions may depend on the leaders and we are doing our
very best to get you what you need.

Thanks for your patience.
