We are not 100% sure we can make it now because someone has to work that Friday. Leaving Saturday from Beaumont around 10am may be our only option, but I don't want to make the trip by ourselves. If anyone would rather leave on Saturday, speak up. We are off every weekend. 1 boat, 3 rooms.

My group is still in...Just trying to get a good cost number on the rooms and dockage to pass on to my other people in the group.

I did some checking today and the Inn on the Bayou is the best deal for the money and when I spoke with the manager today he said the cost for two nights was only $154 and no charge for dockage also he said it was only a 5min boat ride from the casino's so that's where my crew in going to stay and I got a block of rooms reserved today.

OK I've been in contact with Eddie Yago:

I was told they have 6 - 30' Slips 2-50' Slips right now. I spoke to him about the beach. He said the beach should be completed by then and he is taking pictures and sending them to me for best docking. He is going to work with us.

I told him Showtime got a bock of rooms from Inn on the Bayou and the rate. Eddie is working on the rates now. I am sending Eddie info on the boats and poker runs now... This might turn into something pretty big if we already have a good turn out.

Also if y'all could email me at [email protected] Subj: Lake Charles. And I'll send out info direct to you as well.

Thanks,

John

Looks like we are headed for a great weekend on the Casino Run so can we get a hard count of everyone that is going and how many boats and rooms are needed, also we need to see who all is going to leave from Clear lake/Galveston area and Beaumont.

I am leaving from Clearlake. I plan to stay at the Golden Nugget.

Showtime,

Good speaking with you today.

Showtime and I have spoken and we are moving forward. We both are in contact with the Nugget. They understand our wants and needs. So he and I will work on this together as we both have great ties over at The Nugget. LOL

In the next week or so we should have some solid answers and info.

Any updates on the Golden Nugget?

I spoke with Eddie the manager today and he gave me a price of $199 for Friday night and $249 for Saturday night, he also said he would get back to me about the dockage to see if he could waive the fee and if not the fee would be $2 per ft for dockage. The price on the rooms was based on a minimum of 10 rooms up to a maximum of 20 rooms.

Eddie, called me and left a message. He said he would try and looks like he did contact you. I'm sure he is going to give me the same price. The place has been sold out every weekend and that is what we are competing with.

I'll hit him up on free dock and what else we can get.
