I visited the facility at Twin Fountains yesterday.
JDUB and I are checking out the park and area today.

JDUB,

That looks like a sheep pasture just to the left of the sign!

I think I'll erect a perimeter fence to fend off those pesky midnight sheep attacks. After all, at my age I amy be able to put a price on the sheep, but my sleep ... priceless!

See ya'll in OKC this October.

Later ...

Where is the OKC Rally signup? I looked at the Rally section but didn't find a signup area.

What a great city! Jerry gave me the tour this morning and there is a lot to do here.

We'll be posting details in the near future and setting up some polls for group members to decide the best options.

-The park is located at a convergence of major highways.
-There are two truck washes within 2 miles of the park.
-Almost everything (activities) should be within ten miles of the park.

Some of the options we will be presenting:
*FAA Headquarters with atmospheric chamber.
*Working Oil Rig
*Tinker AFB Incredible facility with one mile long building doing a huge variety of repair on military aircraft.
*Sporting Clays at Silverleaf. (Remember the fun we had at Branson?)
*Cowboy Hall of Fame (Very close to the RV Park and very impressive.)
*OKC Historical
*OKC Federal Building Memorial
*Bricktown
*Remington Park
*Stockyards
*Zoo, Omniplex
*2 Casinos just south of town
*Rt. 66 Red Barn in Arcadia
*and a whole lot more.

We have quite a few things that are in the rigid agenda and we are really excited about a full day at United Engines where we will see a members coach from underneath and the workings of the engines and transmissions with a Q&A session involved.

We'll keep you updated.

Many sincere thanks to Jerry and Rae Winchester for spending time with me to take a look around the city and doing a large amount of groundwork before I even got here.

Skiff: Do you have firm dates for our OK rally established that we can get into our travel calendar. I was thinking it was Sept., but Will G said October, Please let us know ASAP. Thanks. Were at Beaudry's now and there is only one other Prevost on the site. It's going to be a slow year I'm afraid.

Harry,

October 2-7, 2009.

(Could you bring me another nice 20g to shoot with?)

Skiffer,

Stockyards? Did you see any sheep? There must be a sheepyard since OKC is Jdub territory.

[Jim Skiff]

We have added an additional day to the OKC Rally. It will now be held October 2-8, 2009.

There is a lot to do and consider doing in OKC and the surrounding area so we will be polling members and asking them which activities and events they would prefer.
