The biggest problem David is that it's over near Houston (I think that's what you said). That's a *long* way from the center of Texas, why would the people from West Texas want to drive all the way to East Texas?
Also, you have to consider the cooks (I would say that...) we don't really want to cook under a tarp, some form of kitchen would be a lot nicer for the food we usually provide).

I would like to make a motion that this camp be on the list of tentative sites proposed for a spring convention. I sent an e-mail to the manager the camp to see if his e-mail was still good and if he was still in charge. He immediately replied, and said he would mention it to the committee that controls this camp. I bet this place would be inexpensive compared to other choices that were mentioned. This place does not have any karst or any of the scenery of the Texas Hill Country. However, it is out in the sticks. Camp Happy Hollow ( CHH ) is more primitive and smaller, than the John Knox Ranch Camp that the event has been held at before. I think there would be no shortage of places to rig a hammock. I am guessing Camp Happy Hollow would cost at least $ 600 for the 3 day weekend. The camp committee may say they are not interested. If that happens, then maybe TSA could offer $ 800 or more, as I imagine they are too cash-strapped for renovation. Portable facilities could be erected if necessary, like the big tarp with the Oztotl logo. I am NOT trying to side step the procedures. I am only trying to see what interest is out there for holding the event at CHH. If the motion fails, I am not going to lose any sleep or get my feelings hurt.
