Creekwood Resort is now offering the Louis Vuitton Red Neck, Strap Repair Kit

 

After 12 Years of continuous wear and tear, Melissa's purse has broken the strap, on her Louis Vuitton purse?

So for Mothers Day I went all out and repaired her purse with a high quality yellow colored tywrap and Gorilla Tape!

For the low cost of only $19.95 plus S&H of $21.95 you will recieve the following;

1) Small black Tywrap

1) Med. Yellow Tywrap

3 Inch' s of Black Gorilla Tape

 

My motto is; why replace a purse when you can get another fly rod?

Mom and I on Creekwalk

I remember dear mom chasing me with a broom when I would do something wrong, who me? 
Wow, how times have changed.
This is one reason Melissa and I love what we do, meeting all the wonderful people that may have had mothers that did the same,, care! 
Happy Mothers Day
Final Thoughts 
We thank you for reading our newsletter. When Melissa and I invested in Creekwood 8 years ago, one of our commitments was to keep Creekwood a "Vacation Only" campground. In other words we have no permanents and we  are the only private campground in White county set up that way. So we must and have saved up reserves to make it through the off seasons. What we ask from you is if you enjoyed your stay, pass the word, allowing us to keep this park the way it is. Below are some review links and putting a good word in really helps us out.
 
Sincerely,
Robert and Melissa
Creekwood Resort
