Temple, TX Regional meet April 26-28

Post by colby sorrells »

The Temple Texas Regional Meet will be held in conjunction with the NFLCC meet on April 26-28. This is the most fun meet of the year, no doubt. Plan to attend The National Old Tackle Meet of Texas at Temple this year. Hoping for 2 dozen ORCA members at this meet. We have the entire motel. Texas Roadhouse steak right next door. Hope to see you there. Colby

Colby:
Thank you for promoting this regional event. I posted a version of your notice with some relevant pics on the ORCA Facebook page. May I suggest that you and all ORCAns in the region go to that ORCA Facebook post and LIKE and SHARE with everyone you are connected with on Facebook and in any relevant Facebook Groups. Get the word out and you will surely bring in more collectors and more reels to that show.

PS
There is an image of the ORCA Facebook Post shown at/near the bottom of the page at this LINK under Everything but Reels

It is nice to know this event will be in Temple Texas however Temple is Rather a large city and I guess I could drive around a few hours and ask peeps if they know where this event in Temple is taking place or take the Clue about it being next to a Texas Roadhouse and narrow it down a bit that is if the peeps I query know where the steakhouse is and or if there are more than one Texas Roadhouse Steakhouse's in Temple as the case may very well be.

This is the kinda guy who is informative and most helpful .A couple of other posters not so much but an E for the effort is offered to them anyway .
It really is a sensible thing to do when you post an event to not only include the time and date but to also include the location just saying . :shock:
Thanks Mr. Schottenham
