TOYOTA TEXAS FEST: A ten year old bass tournament and 
festival just got better...on Passport to Texas.

This is Passport to Texas

The 10th Annual Toyota Texas Bass Classic, May 20 
through 22, takes place on Lake Ray Roberts, and features 
family friendly activities at Toyota Stadium in Frisco.

18- This is a new thing for Bass Classic. The fishing portion is going 
to take place at Lake Ray Roberts, and then they're going to come over 
and do all the awards in the stadium. So, it's really going to be a little 
different than it's been, but almost a little cooler, because usually we're 
out in the country, and this time a lot of people that haven't been able 
to come out to this event in the past are going to get to come out and 
try it.

The festivities in Frisco offers urban families an 
opportunity to get acquainted with the agency and the 
diverse outdoor recreation opportunities available to 
them. 

16- A lot of times, it's the first time they see us. They've heard about 
us, but they don't really know who we are and what we do. A lot of 
people have no idea we that we even do archery; they think a lot of 
times we're just fishing and camping. But, we're a lot of things. And, 
it's a great place for them to touch and feel things. It kind of goes back 
to when we did EXPO. The idea was 'Hey, let's take this on the road and 
give people that experience-[take it] to places that may not have seen 
it before or know anything about it.

Enjoy country music concerts all three days of the Toyota 
Texas Fest. There are plenty of family friendly activities, 
food, drinks and big bass. Discounted single day tickets 
or weekend passes are available before the event at 
toyotatexasfest.com.
