Campgrounds
SO YOU THINK YOU’LL HAVE THE BEST CAMPSITE?
This year we want to see our attendants get creative with their campsites. We’re not talking about just throwing up a canopy and rope lighting – we want to see some full blown creativity! How about constructing a replica of the Alamo? Perhaps a giant teepee? Maybe even just packing your campsite to the gills with all the coolest amenities you could possibly have?
Come out early on Friday, March 2nd (campgrounds open at 12:00 PM) to begin working on your site, and Saturday morning our staff will wander the campgrounds to do the judgin’. The winning camper (or team of campers) will be announced Saturday afternoon at the main stage, and will be awarded with a prize package with various goodies including free weekend passes to TXIF 2013!
Spread the word, put your team together, get to planning, and most importantly, prepare for one wild weekend!
