    jdc, I believe the Texas minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. So, IMO, the "allowance" is to pay even less per hour.

    The reviews on this park are quite...interesting.


    WOW. The Yelp reviews are ... impressive!

    Twenty hours a week for an allowance for a full hookup site. Interesting offer. With sites about $500 per month...that's about $6.25 per hour.
    I calculated $5.77/hr

  • What is the allowance? I assume this means a partial cost of the actual site fee?
