  • September 27-29 - Club Outing to PORT ROYAL on Padre Island. PORT ROYAL on Padre Island. hotel.jpg (23680 bytes)Los Amigos has made arrangements to have a fun weekend at Port Royal in Corpus Christi, Texas, the weekend of September 27-29, 2002. South Texas weather is still very hot at that time of year, but a lot more comfortable than July!

    The cost of the condos is $156.00 per night + tax for waterslide.gif (16065 bytes)a poolside unit. These units are 2 bedroom, 2 bath units; the master bedroom (which is huge) has a king bed and the other bedroom has 2 twin beds. There is also a sleeper sofa in each condo.  See room layouts.

    There are only a few poolside units available, so if you are interested boardwalk.gif (18616 bytes) please contact Pat Bryson @ 491-0611. She has several units reserved but a credit card is required (first nights lodging will be charged to card in case of cancellation) to make the reservation and we need to let the Port Royal people know by Tuesday so the condos can be released. After Tuesday it will be on as available" basis.

    We will meet around the pool and on the beach during the day and on Saturday night we will have a dinner and party of some type with everyone sharing the costs. So, get some friends together, give Pat a call and book your condo. Pat will also keep a list of people who want to go but don't have enough for a full condo.

    Update on Port Royal (by Wanda Polasik),
    The Port Royal weekend is also the big Bayfest celebration in Corpus Christi. Its a great outdoor festival on the water front downtown. Lots of live music and I'm sure a beer booth or two.
    If there are still any runners in our club there is also a 5k and 15k on Saturday morning.
    You can access the site at http://www.bayfesttexas.com

       - Regards...WKP

    Caution:  Port Royal officials have accused us of having "too much" fun on past trips there.
