In the spirit of past camps hosted by our lineage friends, this year’s event

Location: Rancho
Cortez www.ranchocortez.com is a
working dude ranch 45 minutes from the San Antonio, Texas airport (SAT). 872
Hay Hollar Rd. Bandera, TX, 78003
Transport: The ranch has a 10 passenger van that can transport to/from SAT. $125 each way. Plan to fly in/out close in time so you can share the costs (arrange this through the ranch) or rent a car.
Capacity : The
ranch has limited capacity, so register early. Lodging ranges from 14 person
bunkhouse (dormitory, one for the men and another for the women, two bathrooms
each) to rooms of various sizes, some of which can hold 4-5 guests. The single rooms are already booked.
When you register we will contact you to confirm receipt and then you can call the ranch to arrange your accommodations. Rancho Cortez will do their best to put you in the appropriate room. If you’re ok with the bunkhouse, just tell Cheryl there. 830-796-9339

What to bring: The ranch is a mile down a gravel road off TX
1077 and it’s real dark out there so bring a flashlight. The rooms have no TV,
telephones or coffee makers. Wi-Fi is available but cell service is spotty. The
food is good and rooms comfortable. They have a small store, so you can buy
water and soda, etc. but you may want to bring bottled water. They have a pool
and spa, so bring your swimsuit. There is a workout room onsite, too. If you
plan to ride the horses, bring your jeans, hat and boots.
