Just come down on Saturday's and hang out, see if you really like us and we will see if we really like you. ;) :) :) If all goes well /after you understand what we expect and still want to become a member then we have a vote/you pay your dues and that's it. It takes a lot of work  to keep things going especially in the Spring and Summer and some just don't have the time or make the time and this isn't there main interest, We don't expect anyone to not have other hobby's and interest but we do expect TwinOaks to come first after God/Job and Family. :) We are always looking for good solid new members. ;) We do have a max membership of 25 but have lost a few in the last year or 2 and have some openings. Come any time and get to know the guys and we will go from there. I am there most every Friday evening afternoon and Saturday all day.  :)

I'm thinking of making this the family spring camping trip this year. I have a couple questions though. Is this event a good one to bring the whole family to? My girls are 8 and 10 and both shoot to some degree and are at home in the woods. It would be perfect if there were others around that age.  We usually base our trips around fishing. I don't suppose there's someplace close by to toss a few lines? One last inquiry, are there ample trees in the camping area? I'm a hammock guy. I don't even need level ground just a couple trees 7'-10' apart. The wife and kids will need a flat spot for their tent though. 

Also if I do end up making the trip, do you guys need any signs, banners, decals, or vanity license plates made up? I'd be more than happy to do so. Even if I don't come down I could mail whatever you might need.
I have nothing but scorn for all weird ideas other than my own.

We're talking about it already at our house and making plans. Deciding on attending or not is a no-brainer here, this is a can't miss annual event for us now. :)
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Yes it is a good place for kids, we usually have a bunch and they all seem to find each other. Plenty of trees for you and I am sure we can find a flat spot for the tent. Not sure on fishing, the Cumberland river is close but nothing right at the farm. Ky and lake Barkley is about 70 miles west. Hope you can make it, I feel sure you will enjoy. Greg looking forward to seeing yall again. Working on a wood pile already. ;)

I went last year and it was my first year so I didn't know what to expect. EVERYONE there is incredibly nice and helpful. There was plenty of room for camping (provided you don't show up Thursday night : ) ) and there were a lot of kids around.

My camp neighbor had a hammock set up and I plan to bring mine this year in addition to my tent (just in case the rain gets bad or we're still in some winter weather (last year the temps dropped to the ~30 range at night)

There's not much fishing close by, and once everyone gets settled in (usually about Wednesday) getting cars in and out can be a bit of a tight squeeze but honestly if you're entering the selfbow challenge you're not going to have time to fish with all of the bow making to be done! Also there's no shortage of stuff to do from the flint knapping to the bow and arrow crafting to just checking out the vendor tents and meeting your neighbors for the week.

If you don't enjoy yourself at the classic, its your own fault.  ;)

It was great meeting some of you family last year Guy, I will say they were much better looking than you, what happened. ??? ;) :) I am really looking forward to it again, got even more talking about coming in early so the early part of the week should be a hoot, I love that time before I get to wrapped up with stuff to do. :)

Pappy, I would like to reserve a time early in the week to shoot a round of targets with you.  We never did get the chance last year.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left
