A Few FW Questions for a first-timer..

[etyper333]

My family is going to take our pop-up to FW next week and we have a few questions that maybe someone can answer for me:
What are the hours of the trading post? Is it still open as we will be returning from the parks?
As campers who have never camped anywhere before that had cable, what kind of hook up is necessary? Is it a standard cable that can just be plugged into a TV or is an adapter needed? We do have the preferred site (all that was available for the duration of time) but still aren't sure if we'll even bother with a TV.
Also, where can I buy a newspaper in the morning, and at what time is it normally available?

I'm sure I'll come up with more questions as we try to pack, but any help with these will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

You are going to have so much fun!!!!! The hours vary on the trading posts but I believe they will be open until around 9 pm. I may be wrong on that but you might want to buy what you need before you head to the parks. There are newspapers available outside the trading post everday in a regular paper box but I do not know what time the papers are put in there.

You will need to bring your own cable wire to hook up your tv.They are sold in the trading posts but everything is priced higher there so you are better off bringing most anything you need from home. If you forget anything it is cheaper to go to a local grocery store like Publix. Try to avoid Goodings at all costs because they are more expensive than the trading post.

I think they stay open until 9pm.

trading post hours are 8 am - 10 pm, there are 2 trading posts in the campground - the Meadows which is the larger of the 2 and the Settlement, which right next to the Marina.

Hi,

Just about all food locations (except for the bar) closes at 10pm. That includes both Meadow Trading Post locations...
