QUIET VALLEY RANCH – KERRVILLE, TX
Camping on the Ranch is probably the best way to experience the magic of the 2007 Summer Music Camp. Some of the best music will be heard in the campgrounds in the evenings. Although we will be camped near and around Threadgill Theater, there are 20 acres of scenic and rustic Hill Country campgrounds within walking distance of the outdoor theater and Chapel Hill.
Warm showers and clean (albeit primitive) toilet facilities are located throughout the campgrounds.
NO PETS are allowed on the Ranch during the Music Camp.
NO FIREARMS OR CONCEALED WEAPONS!
NO GENERATORS!
NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL
NO STEREOS OR RECORDED MUSIC are allowed to be played in the campgrounds.
This is fairly rugged Hill Country terrain, so dress comfortably. Shorts, t-shirts, a hat, and outdoor shoes usually do the trick. Be prepared for rain! Afternoon thundershowers are not uncommon. Some good rain gear, both for your camp site and for your body, can make a big difference!

As most of you know October was Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For the whole month of October our Torch Club kids held a "Penny Drive" for the Breast Cancer Foundation. They have raised about $200 all of which will be sent to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
