Wow, what a great experience. Nothing at all like the previous classes. The Georgetown Chamber facility is like brand new. Cool and comfortable, and very spacious. We had padded comfortable chairs and real tables to sit at with real cool air conditioning (that works great). The DPS crew were the greatest. On the final test, our class had a grade average of 98%. The area around the Chamber is very safe, plenty of parking, and plenty of places to eat within walking distance. I stayed at the LaQuenta as did the majority of the class. The accomodations were clean, and the area very safe. I left my gun bag in the closet and the cleaning crew never went near it. Take a pillow from home, the pillows there suck, beds are comfortable, TV is OK, not too many channels to choose from. George town is a very beautiful city and very well kept. Make sure you bring your ammo, Wally World doesn't have any and neither does Academy. Make sure the ammo you bring is on the approved ammo list, nothing else will be allowed PERIOD. The range is state of the art, plenty of room and very well kept. It is about a 20 minute drive from the hotel. There is an indoor range not too far from the hotel, I didn't go there but a few of the class did and they said it was a fine facility. The LaQuenta is on the west side of I35 and the Chamber is on the East side of I35. It takes about 5 minutes to drive there, everything is very close. The Jily 19 class will be happy DPS changed the site and so is DPS.
