Polar Bear update Clarification...

For those going to the Polar Bear it will now be held at Dr. Mark Hauswirth's home on Saturday March 3 at 2:00 pm. Please contact Dameon Metzger or Chad Spyhalski for more information, or leave a message here. This counts as one camping night. Meal is already planned. You can make a shelter or bring a tent to sleep in, or sleep with a buddy to keep warm. Bring dry clothes to sleep in, bring extra socks, a warm stocking hat, extra gloves and a warm sleeping bag. Temperature will be in the 20's. 

Just to clarify we will be having hobo packets for dinner, hamburger,onion, potatoes carrots in aluminum foil cooked in the fire pit. Breakfast will be cereal or instant oatmeal. Arrive at 2 on Saturday leave at Noon on Sunday. We will only be doing dinner and breakfast. Please eat lunch on Saturday before arriving at Dr. Hauswirth's.

To get to Dr. Hauswirth's:
First, it's the same place as the Campoween and the summer campout. If you were not at either of those events, these are the directions

Take M-32 west toward Elmira. After the 4 lane passing section, turn right on Hallock Rd. After approximately 3/4 of a mile, turn left on Parmater Rd. We are the second driveway on the left, right before the seasonal road sign.

For those who prefer to plug an address into a GPS, my address is 5175 Parmater Rd, Gaylord. Just make sure it takes you west, not east. If it says East, try using Elmira as the town instead of Gaylord.
