Pete, A "pre-closure" inspection is not required other than for your own piece of mind. Are there other "qualified" people in your chapter that could look them over and save you transporting them to the Gathering? Take lots of pictures and document the building for you record keeping. I'm betting someone locally could do that for you and you could get in another months building before the Gathering. Good luck and see you at the Gathering. Larry Flesner
