Tesla Coils And Music At Inks On Friday

After talking with the superintendent of the park on Wednesday, he expressed a concern about loud music in our camping area. His main concern was the disruption of the peace for the campers at the other side of the park as well as the people that live across the lake and most importantly the tranquility of some endangered nesting birds in our area. He was not telling me we couldn't play music before the quiet hour of 10pm struck. This man and other law enforcment officers could have stopped everything we had planned, but they have not done that. Because of my diligence in trying to abide by all of the rules and regulations, they have bent over backwards to help us with the execution of our event. All of law enforcement has gone out of their way to be cooperative and for this reason we must be on our best behaviour to show them that we are both responsible and the that we care about the wildlife and the ability of other campers to enjoy the park in its natural setting. For these reasons I have cancelled the Tesla Coils for Friday night. Why? Simply because the coils can be very loud and we do not want to establish a bad start before the real event at Longhorn Caverns. We can still have our sound system, but we must manage it in a way that the park staff does not have to come and visit us with complaints of loud sound. Originally we were scheduled to go quiet at 10pm. I have told the superintendent that we will turn off all music by 9pm and if we are lucky, maybe he will give us permission to go to 10pm. But don't count on it. When the quiet time comes, we can still stay up and look at the stars, listen to the owls, meditate, or visit will our friends camping with us. Time to go to bed. Matt Man out.
