A date and cabin locations have finally been chosen.
This year’s shoot will be October 18th. Once again it will be held in Seagoville, (5 miles south of Route 175 or 3.5 miles NE of I-45 (exit 270) on S. Belt Line Road). The plan at this time is to meet at Cotton Gin in Crandle for breakfast at 9:00 a.m., BUT they are currently closed due to a fire. Hopefully they will be reopened by October. If not, Plan B will be put in place. After breakfast we will all head to the range. A delicious lunch will be provided at the range by our wonderful FRiend cpdiii.
The cabins where we are staying are Miller Creek Ranch in Canton, TX. There is a map of the place Here
A block of cabins have been reserved under the name TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot. To reserve your cabin, call 866-488-6020 or 903-567-6020 They are reserved for Thursday the 16th through Sunday the 19th. Please let them know if you will arrive Thursday or Friday night. A $125.00 deposit is due at the time you make your reservation, with the balance due when you check in.
The cut off date for making your reservation is May 28th! Make reservations after that date at the risk of not getting a cabin.
The cabin numbers reserved for us are 10, 22, 24, 25, 77, 88, 89, 90, 92 and 102. #’s 22, 24, and 25 are called Executive Cabins with lofts, they are $185.00/night and sleep 4-6 people; #’s 10, 88, 89, 90 and 102 are Standard Cabins with lofts, they are $165.00/night and sleep up to 4 people; # 92 is a Standard Cabin without a loft and # 77 is handicapped accessible, those are both $150.00/night and sleep up to four. All the lofts, with the exception of #22, are only three feet high and each have two twin mattresses; the loft in #22 is five feet tall. Each cabin has a queen size bed and a queen size sleeper sofa.
No cars are allowed at the cabins, with the exception of the handicapped cabin. You can either use their concierge service to get to and from the cabins or rent a golf cart for $40.00/day. If you want to rent a golf cart it was suggested that you reserve one when making your reservation.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in October!
All the kids are doing it.
I’ll have a stern talk with Laz tomorrow at lunch.
Look, being a liberal is so much easier than thinking or working. I’m taking the easy way out. Gibsmedat!
Not the cool kids.
That’s great, gentlemen. Glad you got in early.
I went and looked at the pictures of Cabin #92, and it is quite attractive. Y’all got a good one.
;-)
Is it true that you’re not coming this year? If so, :(

Gonna miss you all!!!
I was scheduled for a combination triple-heart-bypass and a brain-tumor removal that day, but attending the shoot is much more important.
Already paid for....fishing trip.
If I retire in the next 5 months...I will come down!! And do both!!
FRegards,
See you in ‘15, then. God willing, and I’m still alive.
Not planning on assuming room temp quite yet!!
You better not either!!!
FRegards!!!
One never knows. I am an OLD lady.
I've always got needle-nosed pliers, a box cutter and duct tape.
You need not go without and you'll get discounted rates.
Give it some thought.
Bring beer.
Yeah....I’m old too.
A sharp hack-saw...and a spreader.
Got a hand drill...and plenty of sterile water, wash rags, and such. I could surely make a sterile field. Got some other things...too.
You would be in good hands!!
