This will be my first year doing any poker runs but i would like to get into it, where do i sign up?

For the LTPA memberships, check the website for the sign form. Membership incluldes, amoung other things, fuel discounts at many marinas around the lake.

For each run, we're pretty informal with the signups. We do all the registrations the morning of the runs. The runs are always on Saturdays and start at 10am. At noon, we leave the first location and travel to a lunch stop. Depending on the run, we will raft off or tied up somewhere on the lake until roughly 4:30pm. The run ends at a waterfront venue where the last card draw is around 5:30pm, followed by a calcutta on most occasions.

The details of each run are set a few weeks ahead of the run and listed on the website (www.ltpa.net) as well as sent out to our e-mail list.

We hope to see you there......

hi everyone,
We moved the June date to the 25th as the 11th is the date of the ROT Rally. It'll be a great year on the lake.

We are going to try and make the July 16th run. This will be our first time on Lake Travis, can someone give information on lodging.

Is it best to find a Marina and leave the boat in the water that way you can pick and choose the hotel/cabin you want to stay at?

Or are the places to stay that the boat on the trailer will be safe at night while we are away from the hotel doing some night time fun activities around Austin?

We would prefer to stay close to the lake.

Any recomendations on where to stay???

Lakeway Inn is very nice. There are some bed & breakfast places on the lake which may be an option also. Yes, I believe you can get an overnight slip at LW or possibly Carlos & Charlies. The marinas are safe and secure to leave a boats over night, this s/n be an issue. Lots of hotels in and around the lake to stay at also.

A few more options: The Mountain Star Lodge between Lakeway and Bee Cave and the Hampton(Hawthorn?) Suites in Lakeway. You will need to find a good place to put in though. Usually Mansfield Dam is the location of choice.

If you stay at the Lakeway Inn, you can put in right on the premises and leave your trailer there.

Hi everyone,

For the June Poker Run, we are moving the date back to the 11th of June in order to combine efforts with Maggie’s Hope (http://www.maggieshope.org) to help children with Autism. This is a wonderful opportunity to join forces with a great organization which helps so many kids across Texas.

As a reminder, our first run is on Saturday, April 30th. Come out and join us. We are looking forward to seeing everyone at our events this year.
