Alamo, Sea World and USS Lexington campout

Posted on Nov 18 2023 - 12:33pm

Event Details:
January’s campout is going to take us to three different great locations. The first stop on Saturday will be at the Alamo where we will have a couple of hours to tour the Alamo and learn about its history. The second stop will be Sea World where we will take a nighttime behind the scenes tour of the park and sleep on the floor in the shark enclosure. After eating breakfast on Sunday we will feed the stingrays and dolphins and then travel to Corpus Christi and board the USS Lexington where we will be able to tour the ship, go on a historical scavenger hunt and spend the night in the crew bunks. This is a great 3-day 2-night trip that will take place during the 3-day weekend/ Martin Luther King holiday.
