Bob Smith and Dempsey Malaney will serve as Co-Camp bosses.  Our campground will be at picturesque Wolf Creek Park and Lake Fryer, in Ochiltree County about 15 miles from Perryton.  Large elm and cottonwood trees at the campsite on the south side of the lake promise an enjoyable tenting experience.  Bathhouses with restrooms will be available nearby.  There are also 54 RV hookups with water and electricity on the south side of the park where TAS will be located.  Besides the camping, the park and lake also offer fishing, swimming, boating, and there are playgrounds as well as hiking and jogging trails.  Camping fees will be waived at the campground for us.  Please note that the park does not allow glass containers, so leave them at home.  We are also cautioned to bring a light jacket as it sometimes can get cool at night (makes for great sleeping).  There is also a restaurant at Lake Fryer which will be convenient to participants.
