The destination and dates are finalized for this falls SlabFest:

As usual we will officially start Fri. eve. with "Liars Club" around the campfire at one of the member sites. Sat. morning we hold the "friendly tournament" with weigh in afterward followed by a fish fry and games. Sun. is a free day to do with as you like.

I contacted them and discussed our group holding the event at their facility. They have group campsites so we can all set up together. They said they will have plenty of sites in those areas for that weekend. They have pavillions, boat launch, fish cleaning station, etc. The rate for off lake sites is $30/day w/ electric and water. There is a one time watercraft fee of $5 which covers use of the boat launch.

Carol and I are going down there in two weeks for a long weekend to check things out so I'll have more info. on which group sites we want. I'll post a report on this thread afterward.
