Dallas DownRiver Club formally invites you and your family or friends to help us haunt Goat Island at our annual Caddoween Campout on Friday, October 24th thru Sunday, October 26th, 2008. Camp will be at the usual location on the Southwest corner of Goat Island near Pine Needle Lodge. Put-in and take out will be at the Pine Needle Lodge alternate area which is located just past the entrance to Pine Needle Lodge.
Dogs will be allowed this year, but they must be kept in a separate area from the rest of the group campsite. They must be restrained so that they cannot fight each other, bite anybody or cause problems by getting into food, gear, tents or otherwise causing a disturbance, which includes barking at night when people are trying to sleep. Saturday, the 25th, will include several events and contests: 2:00 - Pinata for the kids Any questions? call
