Look for more details in the Quail Tale.

Bonnie and Clyde Day

Non-DMAFC Activity

Pilot Point, Texas, was the location of the filming of the famous bank robbery scene in the 1968 movie, Bonnie and Clyde, starring Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty. Additionally, Pilot Point (and neighboring towns and counties) were actually the stomping-grounds of Bonnie and Clyde and their cohorts, as well as other well-known outlaws including the James Gang, the Younger Brothers, Quantrill’s Raiders and others. The Festival is hosted by Pilot Point’s Main Street Program.

Tour to Medicine Park Oklahoma

DMAFC Tour

We have done this tour before and it was very popular so we thought we would do a repeat. On Sat, Nov 18, the club will leave from the McDonald's at 908 Hwy 380 in Decatur at 9am. We will make the short drive up to Lawton for lunch before making the last bit of the drive into Medicine Park. Medicine Park was the very first designated Tourist Town in Oklahoma and if you have never been there, you're missing out. Other stops this day will be a drive-up Mount Scott and a scenic drive through the Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Preserve. We will not be doing a group block of rooms for this trip but we would recommend you book a room at the Plantation Inn. This is the only large hotel in Medicine Parks and the rates are very fare. You will just need the one nights stay.

Check out the October Quail Tale for additional details.

Christmas Tour to Jefferson Texas

DMAFC Tour

Journey to East Texas to enjoy the Christmas festivities organized by the city of Jefferson. Any tour the club does to Jefferson is always a huge turnout and we hope this to be the same. Due to the distance to get out there, we will need to leave Friday afternoon. More info on this tour will be coming out soon but a few things we are considering is the cities candlelight Christmas tour of homes, the Christmas light walking forest, and visiting the city of Marshall, named one of the top ten cities in Texas that look like something from a Hallmark movie. We will also try to fit in time to visit the city of Uncertain for catfish so mark your calendars and begin booking your rooms in town. This would be for the nights of December 1st and 2nd. We will always recommend either the Excelsior House Hotel or the Historic Jefferson Hotel. Both of these hotels are located in the town square of the city.

Be on the look out for more details in the October and November Quail Tales!
