Lake Lewisville is located minutes north from Dallas/Fort Worth and is just off of I-35. It will be easily reached as there are many major highway arteries that will lead you there. There is an abundance of camping/RV locations as well as many restaurants, bars, and hotels. Local venues include Texas Ranger baseball, Six Flags, horse racing, and shopping for the land-lovers.
Lake Lewisville Party Cove will entertain us. There are two big restaurants, Sneaky Petes and "Charlies". The lake is fairly big. Maps of campgrounds and ramps are available. Sneaky Pete's could easily host a days/nights worth and would seem like and ideal location(plenty of dock space, a pool, bar, sand court volleyball, restaurant, and a separate reception room w/ private access. Public Marinas Name Location Phone Number Eagle Point Lewisville 972-436-6561 Lakeview Lake Dallas 940-321-2675 Cottonwood Creek Little Elm 972-292-1100 Pier 121 Lewisville 972-625-2233 Camping reservations can again be made at www.recreation.gov or by calling 1-877-444-6777. |

"Bigger in Texas" right? I think that will give more people more opourtunity to attend as well as take in some of the local life. Buxton's said that they might do some sort of "Demo Day" as well. Maybe we can talk them into demoing that limited edition Beyerly boat! I would'nt doubt if that sucker wasn't under armed gaurd though. It's wicked!

SN206,
I am delighted with your enthusiasm and effort to get this event going. I want to provide as much assistance as I can. I have reached out to an area CC dealer and they are interested in being a part of the event. I'll email you so we figure out how to make this work and how I can help make this event a huge success. -Keith |

Kieth,
Thanks for the support. Buxtons did mention that they had spoken to you and that they were excited about the event coming. Any suggestions or ideas that you might have would be appreciated. I'm told that some people are coming from as far as Florida! - Ryan |

Hey guys - I am actually the one who started this idea a while back. It took a while to gain steam, but looks like it going to happen. Anyway, I work for a Sign Company and have graphics abilities. If it's not too late, I could work up a flyer and probably even a banner to hang at the meeting place. Any objections?

Keep us posted on places to stay etc. I might be able to make it down. I go through Dallas on business quite often. Glad to see Buxton on line. They were great to deal with when I bought my boat... Moj' |

I will to see about accomodations. Maybe do a list of hotels close to the lake. Also, I know if you want something TX style there are two mega hotels close by, ~5 miles, that are the main attraction. Those are the Gaylord Texan and the kids favorite the Wolf Lodge. But I think for this activity you won't be spending on the hotel therefore it might not be such a good idea.

Anthony,
I spoke to Sneaky Pete's and they are sending me some info today. I'll pass on what I find out. Kirk, Sounds like some fliers would really help spread the word. I'm in Houston for the next two weeks, but when I get back I could spread some out around Eagle Mt. and Lake Worth area. |

From Salt Lake, it's actually closer to go to the Greenlake, WI reunion. About 1200 miles to Greenlake, about 1400 to Lewisville, TX.
When I towed my boat from California to Greenlake last year, we spent the first night in Park City. BKH |

You bring what you got, the vast majority of the boats are not totally restored. No matter what you got it holds interest for this crew.. |

Clinton,
I highly encourage you to bring it as is. Often there will be people there who have had the same project(s) as you, and may be able to save you tons of time and money with pointers or suggestions. You might even run into someone who does it for a living. -Ryan |

Clinton,
If you are that concerned I would trailer to Eagle Mt. Lake or Lake Worth(Both on the north side)to run the boat. Eagle Mt. has a couple of lakeside bars to pull up to in the event you need some "coldies". However you can go to the following site and find all the lake levels in the area.http://www.swf-wc.usace.army.mil/reports/fish.htm |

Stay away from Lake Worth! Stump central. Besides, the city said the lake is off limits to all vessels other than Kayaks or Canoes. Seriously!...

Agreed....Eagle Mt. Lake will be your best bet. I've put in there when the Lake was way down and did alright. Nothing good has really come out of Lake Worth, including the toxicity level in some of the fish!
