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.
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!
That will work great! That way I can boil the eggs in the cabin and not be stuck indoors all day cooking Friday! You are a sweetheart! Thank you!
In addition, if two Freepers would like to drive to the TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot from the area around Atlanta, Laz and I would welcome the company.
Sorry. Didn’t see your post.
Laz and I are driving from Atlanta and are looking for Freepers to share a cabin. If there’s space to put a sleeping bad, I don’t need a bed.
We’d love to share with you.
You know I will. ;-)
Thanks!
You gotta spell my name right. Otherwise I’ll never see your posts.
Thar be fish in that thar fishing hole! But sadly, it is catch and release.
First thing I do when I see you is smack you, but good, for being so damned unavailable this year.
Dude. It’s Texas. Firearms are mandatory everywhere.
I suggest using a pot. Cabins are flammable.
Apparently there is a “Lazmataz” here because the system didn’t yell at me, telling me there is no such person.
Sorry Buddy! I thought there was an extra “a” in there, but was too damn lazy to double check.
Looking forward to seeing you in October.
Come on back in October and meet some awesome FReepers.
I am unbesmirchable. <-- new word!
Heck if I know, my place is in Nevada...
True that.. Hehe...! So glad you are coming this year! Woohoo!!
Don't tell anybody.
That looks good!!!
It was indeed good!
Them Eaker people show up every spring with a batch of dirty crawfish what need a bath.
I'm headed that way the 22nd to go on a 3 day fishing trip in the GOM....
I can't be away from my place for 8-10 days...!!
I was wanting to come to this!!!
. . . and together we do a great job of giving them there crawfish the spa treatment.
Funny that you think it a secret. Everybody knows you are a sweetheart already...except of course, in the case of blog pimps..lol. Never seen you whisper sweet nothings in their ears yet...lol.
