College St., Suite 101 Grapevine, TX 76051 To Whom It May Concern: SBHC of Texas is coming to DFW! We are a completely self-contained Attraction that provides entertainment to those looking to attend a safe, family friendly, professional fright. We are proposing to set up our Attraction in the city of Grapevine. Our setup consists of a large big-top style tent where patrons stand in line, and a series of 30 custom built semi-trailers set up for a walk-through. We have a live Dj and a stage for entertainment while patrons wait in line. Tickets can be purchased online or at the attraction itself. It consists of 30 semi-trailers that are configured like a maze with state-of-the-art animatronics and professionally trained actors. Our target demographic is approximately 12 years of age and up. We are planning on having concessions, but SBHC of Texas will not be providing any food service directly. We are planning on opening in September on Friday the 13th and being open every weekend through November 2nd. We will not be open on Sundays and we will be open the entire week of October 28th and various special event dates including charity events during the period. Hours of operation will be 7pm- Midnight.We will have a limited number of outdoor speakers but most of them will be inside the tent. The location we have chosen in Grapevine has no residential neighborhoods in its vicinity and we have taken into consideration and are sensitive to noise pollution, excess light and traffic related items. Please contact me if you have any further questions. My number is 817-488-3901.
