Lazy Bear Weekend

July 23 Update: This Just In...

We're just one week away from our event, and I want to give you an important update that many of you might have guessed by now. This summer, California has suffered a staggering number of wildfires throughout the state, scorching millions of acres of land and devastating homes and farms. California's Department of Parks and Wildlife has issued an order (direct from Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger) that calls for the public's assistance in the prevention of open fires.

Unfortunately, our annual bonfire/campfire falls under this category.

For those of you looking for a later evening outdoor event, we have put together a four-night party called HUSH HUSH SWEET SMOKEY, sponsored by Beef Dip and 100% BEEF. The location of this late night, moonlit party is the same ESTATE that hosts Sunday Furry Sunday, right across the street from the old Fife's (now the New Dawn Ranch).

We are encouraging you to bring blankets, sleeping bags, flashlights, swim suits and towels. Because there is a new noise ordinance that requires any amplified noise or music to stop at 10:30 PM, this social will not be so much about hootin' n hollerin' as it is about being able to have a nice place to go to with a full bar that allows you to see this incredible estate from a nocturnal point of view!

Please know that we are truly sorry about having to cancel Pyro's Bonfire. It is considered by many in the Lazy Bear family (including myself) to be the highlight of LBW. We hope you will enjoy this alternate late night party.

Feel free to contact us at lazybearweekend@aol.com. In addition we suggest you bringing this handy Lazy Bear schedule - Print Friendly Version.

Looking forward to seeing everybody next week!
