Subject: Re: [BVARC] Countdown to MSWE 2012 As I recall ( thats not much these
days) the coast guard station provided a small area for our use. Yacht Basin
was as said for car/boat parking. not provision for comfort. The full restrooms
/showers, able to set tents, large area to set various antennas and use of
cabanas won the day at Ft Travis. When Cookie and I gave all a looksee the
summer heat and shade was also a key factor. Ft Travis is a lock up after dark
park however gate code was given to chairman MSWE for 24 hr access. Anyway
thats what I still remember. The county park was happy with our event73 Bill

up tilI was able to get down to Galveston to check it out myself, but has
anyone considered looking into or asking the Galveston Yacht Basin ? Yes, it's
all car/boat parking, BUT it's also a mile from Seawolf, the ships should be
visible without aids, and we'd be an IOTA again. Theresa Williams

MSWE 2012 Cookie, I would move forward with the request to the Galveston County
Board for Ft. Travis . I know the mosquitoes were really bad but I don’t think
there is any other option at this time. I talked with Bill about the MSWE and
he has no problem with it and Ft. Travis . I know it is on the agenda for the
BOD meeting tomorrow so there should be plenty of comments after tomorrow.
Unfortunately, I will be out of e-mail coverage starting tomorrow around 6pm
until the 14th. I am ready for it and, if possible, will be spending more time
at Ft. Travis this year. Keep up the good work. Thanks, MikeN5VCX From:

Subject: Re: [BVARC] Countdown to MSWE 2012 Is this thread about MSWE or
SkyWarn? After recently being denied access to the ship compound at Seawolfe
park, I put a query on the reflector about the interest of members in Ft.
Travis on Bolivar, but I have not received any replies. Jerry Muller recently
withdrew from his co-chairman position for personal reasons and I am interested
in anyone who desires to take over that role. At present I am wondering if
there is sufficient interest in the event to query the Galveston County Park
Board about the availability of Ft. Travis . Last year was good, but the
mosquitos in the early evening were fierce. After I made my query, I did not
receive any messages on the BVARC reflector until the one from Mike Hardwick
shown below. I would appreciate it if the situation would be briefly discussed
at the coming board meeting and the feeling of the BOD would be relayed to me.
