Here are the details:
A note on parking: Lucas has expanded the park next to City Hall since last year. This has reduced the area available for parking. As a result, we will need to try to park:
We will be coordinating parking to have longer trailers (3+ horse trailers and/or those with large living quarters) to the right as you pull through the gate and smaller 2-horse trailers on the left. Pull straight down the gravel drive then loop back to the right (or left, as appropriate) and double back to park facing out with truck nose facing the center drive. Park close enough to maximize parking, but far enough apart so riders can hitch and tack their horses between trailers. |
When: Saturday, October 25, 2014
Where: Meet at Lucas City Hall and Pavilion, 665 Country Club Road, Lucas TX – This is the NEW Lucas city hall building. Park in the back (driving to the south side of building). South entrance to City Hall is easiest for trailers.
