The planning stages for TCMS XI are in the works. At this point the plan is to hold the event in October 2016. (Yes, I know that is a looonnnggg way away!) The range we are considering is Hiciksville Range, in Gatesville. The closest lodging we could find is in Whitney.
We have already had one recon trip, which was not very productive due to heavy rains. The entire recon crew checked out one of the places we are considering staying. The majority of us fell in love with the place, even though it was a gloomy weekend. It made for some fun joking about being the perfect place to film a horror movie, especially with the creepy & trashy road to the resort. We all agreed that the pavilion was awesome; it is big enough to hold all of us without bumping into each other.
NYTexan & BuckeyeTexan checked out the other place. I liked it from looking at their website, but was not impressed with the pictures that Buckeye sent me. She & I are going to do another recon so that I can see it in person. There is also one more location we will look at. The one negative for both of those places is the size of their pavilions ~ we need lots of room to move & mingle.
Next week Eaker, humblegunner and I are going to Hicksville Range for a look see and discuss pricing.
Stay tuned for more info . . .
I wonder how Muttly went deef? ;)
in Whitney, for October 6 ~ 9, 2015.
Check year please Ma’am.
OOPS!
I want to come to this one. I wanted to come to others too but, I think this one is actually doable. No kids! The youngest will be in college this time next year (if I don’t strangle her first).
That’s just cool.
That's the story we were told.
I hope you can make this one. I’d love to finally meet you.
‘zactly
That should be Eaker’s next tattoo. ;)
Looks like a really nice range! No range nazis in sight! LOL!
‘zactly
I LOVE that!
Good lookin’ dog.
I'm pretty sure you meant 2016 :-)
Looks great. I'll get with Libertybel and make sure we get our reservation in before the Feb 15th deadline.
Thank you!
No range nazi’s at all. I asked! They expect shooter to police themselves. Really great people.
Looks just like mine minus a few white whiskers LOL
