Welcome

Dear Feast Goer

Our initial plans of hosting a smaller, more intimate feast this year 2025 have not materialized, therefore, we cancel hosting this year. Stay tuned for subsequent years and also, please let us know if your group would like to host your own feast at SOTO any time in the future.

North Texas Fellowship has been hosting a smaller feast the past few years in north-central Arkansas at a beautiful location called Shepherd of the Ozarks. (https://www.sotocamp.com) We ask that you make all inquiries through us and not the camp as it is our plan to coordinate an all-inclusive festival involving accommodations, food, and activities.

As our plans can change, it is important to understand that this feast site, depending on the number attending is typically more informal in the manner of daily meetings, meals, and activities. The lodges are such that we can expect each family per bedroom with a private bath will average $155/night. We will work with each family and try to coordinate the best we can in accommodating your needs, but typically, each room is with either a King or Queen bed with bunks in the same room. There are also bunk rooms in which we will look to have singles and older teens, obviously men in one lodge and women in another.

Your group can plan to book 9 lodges or as needed. We will ask that you look at the lodge layout and submit your first and second choices by lodge name and bedroom number.  Keep in mind that there will be obvious fluctuation in cost since some bedrooms are much larger than others and can accommodate more people.
The resort/camp can provide catered breakfasts, lunches and dinners during the feast so as to not be burdened with meal preparation for the majority of the feast. And/or you can plan your own potlucks.  It is important to note that the nearest grocery store is 30 minutes away, while the nearest Walmart Super Center is 45 minutes away. The cost for the catered meals are as follows:
6 and under Complementary
Lunch 7-12 ….$8.00 Per Person
……..13 and older $13.00 per person
Dinner …7-12 $14.00 per person
……..13 and Older $16.00 per person
(It is important to note that Shepherd of the Ozarks asks us not to bring alcohol. However, we are not prohibited from having in our own quarters. They also do NOT allow pets.)
