That might be a good idea. I'm going to check out the popup camp trailer this evening, so I should have a better idea exactly what we have with it.

I'm riding the TT course tomorrow(as I will be in Cleburne on business). I'm riding before it gets too hot(around 9:00am). Just let us what we need to bring,or we can talk about it Sat. after the Whiterock ride.

Bud,while in Cleburne(after our ride tdoay) Peggy & I drove over to the state park & checked out the campsites. There are 2 sets of campsites(#1-15 & #16-30)each are $15 a day with electrical hook-ups. Both campsites are about 1.5-2 miles from the entrance to the Park. Capmsite #1(1-5) is very close to the lake(mosquitos)& has a jungle gym/slide(Kinds),campsite #2 is a little further from the lake(more secluded) & closer to showers. According to the Park ranger,campsites are awarded on a first come,first serve basis.

Also,FYI...next to the campsite #2 are 6 separate screened-in shelter houses that can be rented for $30 a day. They have elcetrical outlets provided. I would guess the houses to be 30' X' 20'. I'm not sure who many people they would house.

We could certainly provide squash, zucchini, carrots, and other veggies, as well as bread, since it sounds like the meats may already be provided by others... And don't forget the coffee!!! I like the screened shelter concept... any idea if one's available, and how many it holds?

It's a pretty safe bet the shelters were booked up months ago. That's why I reserved a campsite, sight unseen, months ago. You have to reserve way ahead of time to get a state park anything at any of the more popular state parks.

Our camp trailer has three beds. One of them isn't spoken for, but it's small. It looks like it's going to be 6:00 or 6:30 Thursday evening before I get there. I don't know yet if we can check in and get numbers and such Thursday evening, but I do know we have a 5:45 am Friday morning pre-race meeting with mandatory attendance. Is everyone going down there Thursday?

Peggy & I are planning to be there mid morning on Thursday. Let me know what I can do(I can get a campsite if the park will let me since the reservation is in your name). Also, there is max.of 8 people per campsite. I'm sure they will limit the number of vehicles as well.

If you could get the campsite, that would be great. I'll call them and ask. Maybe that would help. If not, if you just occupied a campsite, that would make anyone else who drives by think it was taken, and might keep it until I get there.

Bud_Bent Moderator Posts: 3310	Re: TTTT supplies Reply #11 - Sep 20^th, 2007, 11:40am I just reserved one. I thought about getting two, and posted a question about it right after I reserved the one. When no one replied, I figured I'd better just stay with what I was willing to pay for.

We need to talk about how/where everyone will sleep..There is an excess parking fee at campsites with more than 2 vehicles(this includes trailers).

We now have a 2nd campsite that's big enough for 2-4-man tents(the site has sewer/water/electricity hook-ups). It's reserved from the 27th-29th. Dodged one there...
