On our tour through Texas, we stumbled on to an old Kanakuk friend and a new must see stop for all Kanakuk folks.
In 1983, the year Kwest opened, Cecil Eager was coaching Tennis at Abilene Christian University. Joe convinced him to take the lead and pioneer our new western theme kamp along with a host of other kamp legends like Joey and Jeanie Staples, Brad and Debbie Friess, not to mention Eric Peterson, Randy Weaks, and Spook LeGrand. We definitely opened with a bang, and have never looked back.
After a couple decades of faithfully serving ACU as a tennis coach, followed up in the Athletic Director position, Cecil and his sweet wife Judi are now making dreams come true in Gruene, Texas where they host folks from all over the U.S. at the Gruene Mansion Inn.
Located right next to the "oldest dance floor in Texas" you can relax, do some two-stepping, get some great meals, and even float the Guadalupe river if you want (and get a room over looking the river). Everyone needs to visit this place at least once (check out the Gruene Mansion Inn website...I promise you won't be disappointed).
Good food, good friends, and good old fashion traveling. Did I tell you that I love being on the Movie tour?
