<font face="verdana, sans-serif">Hello Tierra Seca Members!</font><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif">This weekend (October 26-27-28) we will have our <b><u>Ranch Camp-Out</u></b> at Alanna's family ranch in Dragoon, AZ. We will be camping overnight on Friday and spending all day Saturday on the ranch. If you want to stay through Saturday night, you're welcome to do that as well. </font></div>
<div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif">We will be helping to pull cockleburs from the washes around the ranch in exchange for a donation to the club. We will also be having fun and exploring/hiking around the ranch as well as learning about different aspects to ranching. </font></div>
<div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif">It takes about an hour to drive to the ranch (East on I-10 and exit at Dragoon), so we will be carpooling where we can. If you want to drive yourself, you are more than welcome to. Sedans should make it down the dirt road to the ranch house just fine. The club will reimburse you for gas.</font></div>
<div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif">If you can only make it out on Saturday, you're welcome to drive in then instead. Let me know if you need directions to get to the ranch (they're pretty easy to follow).</font></div>
<div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif">The club will be providing meals, including: Dinner on Friday (probably hamburgers/hot dogs), Breakfast on Saturday (eggs, bacon, toast), Lunch Saturday (sandwiches), Dinner Saturday (maybe pasta). You'll need to bring any extra food that you'll want to snack on, or any alternatives to these meals. Let me know if you'd like me to accommodate the food selection to have vegetarian/vegan options. </font></div>
<div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><br></font></div><div><b><u><font size="4" face="verdana, sans-serif">Please R.S.V.P. to me: if you plan to attend! Also let me know: when you plan on being there, and if you will be driving yourself or want to carpool with somebody.</font></u></b></div>
