Hey MadJack, it is awesome that you're interested in this gig, it' a huge gathering of the SW teardrop and vintage group and out group and TX Vintage Trailers.

Shelley is the kingpin of this gathering (SW teardrop group) she wanted to be sure we all were able to get sites and because she apparently has deep pockets she reserved both the ENTIRE Lakeview and Big Pine loops and then created her own (and now defunct) website to sublet the sites (with a nominal surcharge of course!) TX state parks don't let you reserve a specific site but since Shelley bought them all, we were able to pick and choose among ourselves. Sooooooo.. (this is getting thick isn't it)

This is the second tine we did this and the first time we felt like alot of our group was separate because we were, and the SW group claimed the lakeview loop, so I decided to buy up a bunch of sites in the back corner of the Big Pine loop and offered those to the group (at no additional fee) and from there we literally filled in the middle.

All that crap being said, there are ALOT of newbies who reserved from the SW group who probably don't even own a camper anymore since we reserved last April and there will be plenty of cancellations. I am going to contact Shelley now and let her know that we have a priority request for any cancellation in the proximity of the South Central crew!

Hey MJ, I got Shelley to create a waiting list with you at the top and she sent a reminder to people that if they are gonna cancel to actually let her know and not just no show because we gots people who want to take that spot!!! The sites are reserved so I'll make sure to grab one in our area because we took over an entire corner of a loop! More to come!
