THEY JUST OFFICIALLY CANCELLED THE JAMBOREE AT GOSHEN PASS!! WE SAVED OUR WILDERNESS AND KEPT OUR LAND SAFE FROM DESTRUCTION!! STAY VIGILANT BECAUSE WE WILL ALWAYS PROTECT THIS BEAUTIFUL PLACE TOGETHER!!
We the undersigned believe that allowing the Boy Scout Jamboree to come to Goshen Pass will forever damage this most scenic and natural resource in Rockbridge County and not provide more than minimal economic benefit to the County and communities that would suffer all of the impact.
Potential damaging factors include:
* Basic human impact of 250,000 visitors in a confined natural area
* Wildlife impact
* Inadequate transportation routes for expected traffic
* Water quality degradation
* Too much human waste
* Groundwater depletion
ONE THOUSAND PEOPLE HAVE JOINED THE FIGHT TO SAVE GOSHEN PASS!! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE PROGRESS AND I AM COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY BY THE RESPONSE!! NOW WE KEEP THE PRESSURE ON TO PROTECT OUR PRECIOUS LAND FROM THIS DESTRUCTION!!

Too much trash and waste. Our water quality is way more important than some jamboree.

Keep the scouts out. Goshen Pass is a treasure and 250,000 people will absolutely destroy the land. It doesnt belong to them.

The environmental damage here is gonna be permanent. Not worth the headache or the fake economic boost.
