Late check-in will be on Friday\, January 5th\, from 6:00pm until 7:00pm.   Please note that this is different than previous years\, as check-in is taking place on Friday… NOT Thursday. \nEarly check in will not be available.  Flights are expected to depart the resort for the evening hunt no later than 2pm\, so if you are unable to check in by 1:30pm you should anticipate missing the hunt on Friday evening and wait for late check in.  All boat owners must be on site no later than 1pm on Friday. \nThe event will end after the hunt the morning of Sunday\, January 5th.  Everyone must check out by noon on Sunday. \nLodging: We will stay at Pelican Bay Resort\, which is located at 4206 Texas Hwy 35 @ Pelican Bay Lane\, Rockport-Fulton\, Tx 78382.  Their phone numbers are 866-729-7177 (toll-free) and 361-729-7177.  You can obtain directions at www.pelicanbayresort.com\, and a map has been provided HERE.  Lodging will be provided for Friday and Saturday nights. \nHunting: All hunting takes place via volunteers who are donating the use of their boat and gear for the weekend. Each volunteer will be assigned a hunting party for the weekend at random.  While we keep fathers and sons together\, usually you will be hunting with people you don’t know.  This is done purposefully so please don’t be surprised.  Party assignments will be posted at your Flight HQ.  Please see your volunteer boat owner or your Flight Leader for assistance or special needs with regard to hunting. \nPlease note that our volunteer boat owners are receiving no compensation for their services and are paying for their spots at the event.  They are not professionals and are simply volunteering their boats\, gear\, and know-how so that you can have a good time.  Because of this\, please take the utmost care of their gear and plan to share in any expenses incurred (such as gas for the boat). \nDogs: All volunteer boat owners have the option of bringing their dogs.  Any hunters wishing to bring their dog should contact Taylor Henckel to make certain that arrangements can be made.  Dog owners should use extreme caution due to the high amount of shell in the areas we will hunt which can cause great harm to a dog if proper precautions are not taken.  Dogs can be kept inside the other rooms so long as they remain inside a kennel at all times while inside.  You will also be expected to clean up after your dog while outside of the hotel rooms. \nMeals: Dinner will be provided for Friday and Saturday night’s meals.  Breakfast will be served Saturday and Sunday mornings.   Drinks and snacks will be available in limited amounts.  It’s recommended that participants plan to eat lunch at one of the local restaurants in between hunts on Saturday and pack their favorite soft drinks and blind snacks. \nFreebies/Door Prizes: Door prizes and event t-shirts may be offered as donations and budget allow. \nDonations: Donations are tax deductible!  Our events do not operate at a profit so we are dependent on donations to fund the organization and maintain the low-cost nature of our events.  We are currently seeking individual\, corporate\, and church partnerships to assist in our effort to reach outdoorsmen.  Financial and merchandise donations are accepted. \nRules:  \n\nNo perfect people allowed. Come as you are\, no pretending.\nNo drunkenness. Alcohol in moderation is allowed only after hunting is done for the day. Safety is a must!\nPlease watch profanity.
