6th Annual Shadow of the Bear

Greetings one and all!

We are very excited for The Shadow Of The Bear Rally’s return to Orchard Beach State Park.  The park and Tin Can Tourists have been friends for over a century.  Last year, a lot of you expressed a strong desire to return to Orchard Beach.  We listened and took action.  Now the Pavilion has been moved, we can safely enjoy our meals there.  All of us – as many of us as are in attendance.  The park’s rangers have recommended a block of sites for our gathering. They are highlighted in white on the site map at the end of this letter.   

SITES CAN BE RESERVED ONLINE:  https://midnrreservations.com/home 

(There is a map on the attached Word document)

LOTS OF OUR FUN ACTIVITIES WILL RETURN: After a two-year hiatus, our Early Bird Dinner, Breakfast Pitch Ins, Koffee & Kabitzing, Pot Luck Dinners, Hell No, I Won’t Dinner, and Sunset Watching are all returning for our 2022 rally.  

NEW STUFF:  We are adding Corn Hole and other yard games. We’ve rented the Pavilion for all day Friday and Saturday.  Now the Pavilion has been moved off the bluff we can safely use the building for a variety of activities.  

Please read the attached Word Document.  It has lots of useful/housekeeping information about The Shadow Of The Bear Rally

The first 5 Shadow Of The Bear rallies were so much fun.  We relaxed, made new friends, grew existing friendships, enjoyed lively conversation, and generally had a really good time.  We are looking forward to the 6^th Annual TCT Shadow Of The Bear Rally being the best yet!

Happy travels,
Rally hosts:
