Powahay District - 2012 Cub Scout Polar Bear Posted Jan. 31, 2012
***********NOTICE***********
New Location:
Ox Ridge School
395 Mansfield Ave (Route 124), Darien
(Short drive from St. Marks and ¾ mile south of Merritt Parkway exit 37.)
Driving directions at: http://www.darienps.org/oxridge/directions.php

ALERT – CAR POOLING IS NOW REQUIRED! WE HAVE LIMITED PARKING.

We are sorry for the confusion this may cause but some scheduling conflicts with St. Mark’s have come up requiring us to move the location to Ox Ridge Elementary School in Darien.

Same great program – nothing has changed! 10 am to 2 pm. Lunch provided.

Ox Ridge School has limited parking and we cannot park cars along Mansfield Ave. Cub Packs are asked to plan a meeting location to arrange car-pooling so that we can limit the number of cars.

We have record breaking sign ups for the Polar Bear -- again, the need to car-pool.
