Rain or Shine—Campground Improvements Are Looking Good

"This last week we've had a little rain...but that's got to be a good thing in the summertime in Texas," says Project Manager Fred Foxx, as he too adjusts to the weather here in Grapevine.

Construction is moving well and systematically around the campground, with about 40 percent of the project completed now. Improvements started on the west side of the park, including three additonal lift stations. This week six new sites were poured near the corner from the cabins on Grapevine Drive.

"Handsome brick support walls were established and several other sites were leveled, ready for cement pours next week," Foxx reports as he covers his usual Friday check-list with Cooper Construction on improvements. Cooper Construction is anticipating moving to the east side of the campground during the first week of August.

"We are constantly monitoring the aggregate hardness of cement pours on those sites we've leveled," shares Foxx. The construction team requires that the pad site set-up time not be rushed, so it can achieve the best strenght and hardness for many of our Fifth Wheel and RV guests. "This weekend, we opened a couple of those newly poured sites for guests, so you can see that improvements are moving along quite well!"
