Here are the current maps for the campgrounds and the local roads. The "curve" is now removed from 302 at 1774 next to the Valero station.





And the updated rules for 2014. Nothing groundbreaking, just cleaned up and clarified some issues.

Camping Rules of the Realm for Camping Guests

Location:  The 200+ acre camping area is located on the west side of the parking lots. Entry into the campgrounds is only on CR302. Turn west off of  FM1774 by the Valero gas station.

The patron's campground is divided into two sections: Quiet and Main. The Quiet area is along the road from the campgrounds entrance on CR302. The Main area is the South campground, plus rows 1-24. Rows 1-5 are available for  campers to use for parking for the Festival, with row 1 being reserved for Handicapped parking only.

All camping is on a first-come first-serve basis. Spaces are not marked and are not allowed to be roped off or reserved in any way. You may park and camp anywhere you like within the designated areas. Please do not camp within 30 feet of the tree line for safety and security access.

Cost:  There is a $ 20.00 Charge per vehicle to camp.  You must have a ticket to the Festival to enter, they are available at the gate.  CASH or CREDIT ONLY.

Fires: The Todd Mission Volunteer Fire Department regularly patrons the campgrounds and will supervise and light the community Bonfire in the general camping area, weather permitting. TRF allows fires in enclosed containers like BBQs, fire pits, barrels, chimineas, open flame heating devices or liquid-fueled devices. Individual fires must NOT be started in or on the ground.

Noise Restrictions: In the Quiet Campgrounds, ALL NOISE (music, generators, loud voices) shall cease at 10 PM.
In the general camping, all amplified sound shall be limited to 85 Db at 10 feet, and shall cease at Midnight. Please note that generators, vehicles and musical instruments are not "amplified". If you need to run a generator all night for medical or comfort reasons, please be sensitive to your neighbors.

Convenience Supplies: There are two (2) convenience stores open from 7am to Midnight in the campground. Ice, drinks, snacks, beer, and camping necessities are available.

Shower House: The showers in the campgrounds are available for a fee and have hot water and a full time attendant. A grooming room is also available.

Food:  Hot food is available across from the Bonfire. Beer and wine is also available.

Facilities:   Porta- Potties are available throughout the campgrounds and flush restrooms next to the Quickie Mart by the entrance.  No electric hookups are available. Water stations are available along the main road near the entrance. RV dump service is available for a fee along the main road as you exit.

Pets:   For safety, pets are not allowed.  ADA certified service animals are welcome. Companion animals and therapy animals are not considered service animals.

Garbage:  Dumpsters are available to use along the main roads.

Security:  The grounds are patrolled by officers at all times.  If you need security,
call 936-727-1800.

Hours:  The Campground is open from noon on Friday (Thursday on closing weekend) and closes at Noon on Monday. 

Weapons:  We do not allow concealed weapons on Festival grounds.  Any swords, rapiers, edged or pointed blades worn as part of your costume MUST BE SHEATHED AND PEACE TIED.  You can secure them with leather straps or zip ties.
