It is again time for the summer version of LVMOC's annual New Year's Day Polar Bear Drive.  For the UN-Polar Bear Drive, our hardy entourage will gather, in mid-summer, with their winter gear stored in their trunks (including ski hats, mitts, jackets, wool scarves, shovels, etc.) and then pose in that gear while baking under the hot sun for a photo shoot  .  This is followed by the quick shedding of gear and a drive that includes curves and cones... Ice Cream Cones, that is (after all, we must involve something icy!).

This will be a PICNIC LUNCH drive!  Our lunch / ice cream stop will be at Heisler's Cloverleaf Dairy, near Tamaqua, for treats that should be appropriate for what will hopefully be a warm, sunny day.  We suggest that you bring a picnic lunch, or, if you wish, Heisler's has burgers, hot dogs, barbeque, pierogies, etc.  There is a covered pavilion with tables and benches, or you might want to bring camping / folding chairs.

After visiting Heisler's, we will follow more fun roads to the drive's end, back in Fogelsville near the intersection of Main St (Old U.S. 22) and PA-100.  The total length of the drive will be around 100 miles.  If anyone is still hungry or just wants to have a cold, post-drive beer, Hops Fogelsville Hotel is near the drive's end point.  There is also a Cracker Barrel in Fogelsville.
