TALE 23 - BYOB

Come to our 23rd TX Annual Letterbox Event (TALE) as we celebrate Bring Your Own Beverage. This can be alcoholic/soft drinks or anything in between and was inspired by my fondness for relaxing with fellow letterboxers around a campfire. So come share your favorite beverage, both in a letterbox and in a cup.

Date:  Saturday, 03/07/26

Time:  09:15 am - 09:00 pm

Location:  Group Hall in Garner SP - Concan, TX

Directions:  From US Highway 83, turn east on FM 1050 for 0.2 miles then right on Park Road 29 to entrance of Garner SP. Pay fee and get a trail map, then continue straight to the Group Hall.

Details:  Sign up for this event on Atlas Quest so we have a headcount. We will begin by exchanging, stamping the event stamp, and obtaining clues. We will have a copier to print clues for boxes placed during the event. A group picture will be taken before people leave to letterbox. There will be a potluck lunch, so bring food to share if you want to participate. We will also play TX Bingo around 06:30 pm Saturday, a game where you stamp a card with TX symbols carved by Baby Bear and hope I call them in the right order for you to win a prize. We will provide prizes, but voluntary donations and money for expenses are appreciated. FYI no pets allowed in Hall. Reservations for Day Use entry to the park are available 1 month in advance and are recommended.

Accommodations:  There are tent/RV sites and a few screened shelters and cabins that can be reserved online 5 months in advance. Hotels nearby are in Concan within Uvalde County and Leakey within Real County.
