From Ken Rodd:
 
I have 12 reservations for the U.S Open for Friday August 10th leaving August 12th for people staying at Austin Lone Star RV Resort. I have a few cabins left, but all the deluxe cabins are reserved. There is one semi deluxe left. A couple of rustic left.


There are some RV sites left - if you want one or think you do better reserve TODAY- we are a busy park and most weekends we are full so a last minute reservation probably won't be available.


Call ME on my cell if you want a reservation. We serve breakfast Saturday and Sunday morning for $2.50 and the pool is FREE

Are you still looking for points?  Come to the Coliseum in San Angelo on Friday.  Turn in time is 9:00 PM.  Pot Luck prior to cooking.  Then on Saturday, turn in time is 2:00 PM.  The new arena football team (the Bandits) will follow the CCO with a game.  The weather's hot and dry, but there will be lots of fun!
