A date and cabin locations have finally been chosen.
This years 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.
Extra cost included are a $5.00 resort fee (they normally charge this per day, but are only charging us a one time fee); Internet fee is $5.00/day.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in October!
Planning fail, we've learned from it.
We'll be shoveling the excess baco-smokies into the dumpster next time.
Looking forward to it! I seem to remember that NYT was particularly fond of banana cream...
Hey, if I ask, you are welcome to mention :)
I can’t help it...that’s just funny! :)
I would have gladly shared if I had known he’d only get one...
said no bacon-lover ever.
(really, I would have! LOL)
I giggle every time I see that picture of the put-upon Gunner complaining that no one left him
enough smokies after he worked so hard to make and grill them.
Sorry, my dear Gunner, but you can be such a card! And if Luvvie says it’s funny, it’s funny!
They sure were yummy! :) nom-nom!
LOL!
Just a quick reminder to those that have not rented a cabin yet ~ the deadline to get the discounted rate ends on the 28th of this month.
I am so screwed.
Laz, you may be so screwed for other reasons, but our cabin is already reserved.
It's a rich tradition from the Olde Country.
I heard that in Olde Countryese “Lazamataz” means “I am so screwed.”
Thank You Scoutmaster
Please excuse my density but I assume you mean the cabin is already reserved for US! Lol
thank you for keeping me updated on this I was going to ask as soon as I got off work
Yes, KC_Lion. You and I are definite, and we’re holding Laz under double secret probation.
Where can I buy that, complete with the “proper papers?” It would add a new dimension to hunting.
:)
Have you checked Bannerman’s Armory Catalog? You can probably mail order one C.O.D.
