1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
JT Services will be located at Hidden Cove Park in The Colony, Texas, and will be the focal point
of the park and surrounding areas on Lake Lewisville. It will provide groceries, general merchandise,
and boat/bicycle rentals to make the park a fully functional campground and recreational facility. By
providing needed services to the park, JT's will help increase attendance and revenue for future
improvement and maintenance of the park. JT's will promote the park on a worldwide level by creating
and maintaining a web-site for posting of upcoming events and other points of interest about the park.
JT's will pay for start-up and yearly maintenance costs of the web-site as long as JT's is in business.
However, the rights to the site will be The Colony's even if JT's does not continue to operate, but the city
would pay the yearly cost (currently $300). Together with The Colony, we can build a safe and fun place
for all ages to enjoy the lake and park without destroying the peaceful surroundings.
1.1 OBJECTIVES
A. Purchase a web-site address, acquire web space, design and publish a complete web presence for the
park and the store. The web-site would allow for rental reservations and advertising for future events and
growth of services. JT's will provide, maintain and update the web-site in collaboration with the city.
B. Launch an advertising campaign in March (newspapers, flyers, etc.) for the opening o£the store to be
held April 1, 2002.
C. Increase the general store merchandise to optimize sales by the end of the £u'st quarter. The initial
store sales projection will be approximately $0.50 per car utilizing the park's statistics of visitors.
D. Implement bicycle rentals in April and watercraft rentals in May.
E. Provide a courteous, fi'iendly, and safe atmosphere to enjoy the park's facilities.
1.2 MISSION
Our mission is to provide a safe, responsible and fun atmosphere for all ages to enjoy the lake and
wildlife without destroying the natural beauty and tranquility. JT's General Store will be located in
Hidden Cove Park, The Colony, Texas to provide service to the N.E. section of Lake Lewisville. The
general store will be located next to a 3-lane boat ramp inside the park. The first-year plan is for the
store to sell general merchandise for picnickers, campers, fishermen, scouts, cyclists, and boaters with an
emphasis on advertising for the public to learn of the great amenities the park has to offer. We will also
provide a complete web-site for the park, at no expense to The Colony, which is akeady operational.
Initially, one Coke vending machine will be available for 24-hr. service. Bicycle rentals will begin in
April and in May, select watercrafts for rent will be located on the shore facing the store. The third-year
plan includes more available watercrafts for rent (possibly ski boat, deck/pontoon boat, more pedal
boats, canoes, jet skis, kayaks, rowboats), open-air bistro tables to enjoy the sunset with possibly
entertainment on special occasions, dinner cruises with Italian food or BBQ, and a miniature golf course.
Our five-year plan includes negotiating with developers for an Italian or BBQ restaurant on a floating
dock at the future marina and expansion of JT's to other parks. If the marina were developed, JT's would
negotiate with developers for a courtesy dock or private slips to house rental boats for increased
convenience of customers to access the watercrafts.
1.3 KEYS TO SUCCESS
JT's will operate as a small, simple necessities type store which will offer various items needed to
enjoy recreational activities. The store services will focus and capitalize on the unique surroundings of a
large park with bike trails, camping, picnicking and boating facilities. Currently, JT's will be the only
facility servicing the N.E. section of the lake which boasts the adjacent, fastest-growing cities.

The Colony will benefit financially by the sales override, 2% of the gross sales, along with
payment of monthly utility charges. It would behoove the city to publish information regarding the
web-site for maximizing publicity for the park. The city's image will be improved by a perceived
interest in community involvement and citizen participation along with increased services available to
the public to encourage increased attendance and thus additional entry fees. Mrs. Watson has also
planted free iris and lily bulbs to beautify JT's area. Later, bulbs and wildlife flowers could also be
planted along the bike trail to enhance its appeal and beauty. IT's rental reservations will be available
on the Internet with pictures and descriptions of the park with the future possibility of arranging
camping reservations also.

7.0 SALES PROJECTION CHARTS, PARK ATTENDANCE STATS., LOCATION MAPS
Please refer to attached sheets for specific information. General store anticipated revenue would
be $7,090 and rentals $6,010 for the 1~t quarter (March-May), increasing the 2nd qtr. (June-August) to
$8,392 and $28,660 respectively, but down the 3rd quarter (September-November) to $4,990 and $8,150.
Three other areas on Lake Lewisville rent jet skis--Just for Fun (972-370-7700) at Pier 121, Lake
Cities Polaris (940-321-4988) and Carl's Hydro-Sports (972-317-9527) on IH 35. All charged $55-
65/first hour and $45-55/hour thereal~er. Carl (Carl's Hydro-Sports) and John Lemley (Just for Fun)
stated the 2002 rental rates would increase to $65-70/first hr. Brian Page and Chris Kephart (Lake Cities
Polaris) are in the process of selling their rental business and feel the new owner would raise 2002 prices
also to $65-70/first hr. due to high, seasonal demand. Currently, there are no known areas on Lake
Lewisville that rent pedal boats, canoes, kayaks, rowboats, catamarans, sailboats, or windsurfers.
IT's food and beverage prices are consistently below those of Charlie's Restaurant at Pier 121
and Sneaky Pete's Restaurant at IH35. The concessionaire at Lakewood Marina by Nick's Italian
Restaurant could not be contacted for comparison of prices, but no boat rentals occur there. The
Corinthian Yacht Club also does not have boat rentals available to the public. JT's will be providing a
unique and welcomed service for water sports, wildlife and nature enthusiasts to enjoy Lake Lewisville.

9.0 PERSONAL INFORMATION
Toni Watson has lived in Wynnewood Haven across from Hidden Cove Park since June of 1986.
She is an avid sports enthusiast, enjoying water skiing, snow boarding, snow skiing, tennis, racket ball,
volley ball, bowling, weightlifting, marathon running, triathlon and quadathlon competition (winning
1~t place in Dallas' 1989 event). As a Physical Therapist for 26 years, Toni has helped people regain
their health and physical abilities. Safety is of utmost concern in health care, and she brings this
knowledge to JT's business plans along with a sincere desire to assist people to live life to its fullest.
As a neighbor across the water, Mrs. Watson is also concerned that any development of Hidden Cove
preserve its natural beauty, wildlife, and tranquility which influenced her to live on Lake Lewisville.
Her husband of 10 years, Joe Watson, Sr. started as a mechanic, progressed to sales, and is now a
service consultant at a Chevrolet dealership. He also is a sports enthusiast, has a love of the water, and
interacts well with people. Joe will maintain/repair all equipment; when JT's income is sufficient to
sustain another employee, then he will join the business full-time.
10.0 CLOSING REMARKS
JT Services is eager to provide recreational development to a lovely park while preserving its
natural resources. The Watsons have an excellent rapport with the Army Corp of Engineers over the
past 16 years due to the 4 waterfi'ont lake lots they have owned, and the 2 they still own. Their
positive, happy, and fun outlook on life is contagious, but they teach responsibility and accountability
to the environment. With Lake Lewisville as the source for Dallas' drinking water, it is crucial to
maintain the purity of the water as much as possible without polluting it. That is one of the reasons
that nonmotorized boats were chosen to be the prominent rental choice, and the 2-3 power watercral~s
(PWCs) will only be rented to mature individuals, 18 yrs. of age or older. It is believed that JT
Services, the city of The Colony, and the A.C.E. will have a mutually satisfying business relationship
because the Watsons have the same ideals of maximizing the park's attendance without sacrificing its
natural features. By being able to rent bicycles, pedal boats, canoes, kayaks, rowboats, catamarans,
sailboats or windsurfers, more people should visit the park and enjoy its beauty and serenity. Because
of the park's sheltered cove with land not far from shore in any direction, it is a perfect place for
nonmotorized watercraft to be utilized in a safe manner. When the marina is developed, JT Services
would like to expand its business by working closely with the city and the A.C.E. for appropriate
development.
