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!
Still stunned by that $1.99 an lb brisket.
Went too the store today an Hamburg was $6 the lb
Heh heh heh.
BTW, I may be moving the clan to Austin to open a new office. If it’s a go, it will all go down before the end of the year.
Thanks Charlie! I will skip the breakfast and meet you at the range to help set up. Am bringing the 2 burner propane stove also.
By then I'll either have my own range key or borrow mylife's if needed. If we get there early enough we can stake out some good parking spaces to reserve for the rest of the gang. (Hog the range, as it were...)
It is the best tater salad in 5 counties...maybe more!
I know because it has "TheMom's" seal of approval!
They have a more than large enough private dining area for our group. The food looks fine and not very pricey.
If anyone has a better notion 'bout this deal, just spout off some!
I chose from this list
Thank you for the info!
I felt bad giving pens tater salad the thumbs up over the Moms(Which is GREAT).
But its the gospel truth! The stuff full out rocks.
Full Gospel tater salad!
We could always go to Moores Store in Ben Wheeler
