This summer we have enjoyed great weather paired with various entertainment <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">options</span>. Some of our special events start with our featured performers at the Bear's Den Bar & Grill. Enjoy a <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">fun filled</span> night of k<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">araoke</span> with DJ Marvelous Marv every Thursday night. If singing isn't your style, we have great performances by JG <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Lightborne</span> and Mark Wayne on every Monday, Tuesday and Saturday.<br /><br />The fun doesn't stop there. Our campfire "Meet and Greet" is Sunday evenings, 7pm at South Point Campfire. This is a great way for our guests to get to know each other and make new friends. Professional fishing guide Fred <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">Brogle</span> helps answer any questions and gives out helpful fishing tips with his FREE fishing seminar at the Sunday campfire. Our guests can also enjoy s<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_5" class="blsp-spelling-error">'mores</span> by the campfire, with our children's activities director, Nikki.<br /><br />It's no surprise that Nikki has been kept very busy this summer. From crafting to water play, the Black Bear children's summer program has been a great way for the children of our guests to learn and still have fun on the resort (meanwhile parents get some quiet time)! Children are free to choose the activities they wish to participate in, that way everyone can join at their leisure.<br /><br />This summer sure has been sweet! Whether you enjoy fishing facts, roasting <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_6" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">marshmallows</span> by the campfire, or like to have your alone time on Little St. Germain Lake, we try to <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_7" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">accommodate</span> all of our guests needs, which makes Black Bear Lodge the ideal place for your summer vacation. </div>Black Bear Lodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07528449402203896495noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37182460.post-74962015781962455812011-05-29T19:59:00.000-05:002011-05-29T19:59:38.997-05:00Memorial Day Weekend Up North - St Germain, WI<div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">Leaves are greening up nicely and we are enjoying a beautiful weekend.

The tournament will be held on Friday and Saturday June 3 and 4, 2011 (which, by the way is free fishing weekend in Wisconsin so you don't even have to have a license!) and we plan on making it a yearly event. </div><br /><div></div><br /><div>The fee of $ 199 per person (2 person teams) includes 2 nights of lodging, 18 holes of golf with boxed lunch, a $50 entry fee for the tournament, and Sunday morning breakfast banquet.

Guests at Black Bear Lodge are reporting terrific snowmobiling conditions. Shown here is a view from late last night after guests returned from a day on the northern Wisconsin snowmobile trails. Today it's snowing lightly, cold temps are here. <br />
<br />
This weekend the Radar Racers will hold snowmobile radar runs on Lt St Germain Lake on Friday and Saturday and then St Germain drag racing will take place on Sunday. </div><div style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://picasa.google.com/blogger/" target="ext"><img align="middle" alt="Posted by Picasa" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/pbp.gif" style="-moz-background-clip: initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: initial; -moz-background-origin: initial; background: 0% 50%; border-bottom: 0px; border-left: 0px; border-right: 0px; border-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;" /></a></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37182460.post-67191241073334607332011-01-14T19:27:00.001-06:002011-01-14T20:24:35.311-06:00Snowmobiling Derby Weekend<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikziyvM1h9wK640mttk5I45tU3UZ0MWpYkZ-HdQThN24AYIIZ6sYHDMxqyikBzcdHFUD2xsrtlv6E6ZCp1uT0hqPWiRfezOHsIFpChvYk9Iiox0a7EEdeQ152GFaFzbOTeoUIh/s400/IMG_8792.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 268px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikziyvM1h9wK640mttk5I45tU3UZ0MWpYkZ-HdQThN24AYIIZ6sYHDMxqyikBzcdHFUD2xsrtlv6E6ZCp1uT0hqPWiRfezOHsIFpChvYk9Iiox0a7EEdeQ152GFaFzbOTeoUIh/s400/IMG_8792.JPG" /></a><br /><div align="center"><embed height="267" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" width="400" src="http://picasaweb.google.com/s/c/bin/slideshow.swf" flashvars="host=picasaweb.google.com&captions=1&noautoplay=1&hl=en_US&feat=flashalbum&RGB=0x000000&feed=http%3A%2F%2Fpicasaweb.google.com%2Fdata%2Ffeed%2Fapi%2Fuser%2Fblackbearlodge1%2Falbumid%2F5562173428624974785%3Falt%3Drss%26kind%3Dphoto%26hl%3Den_US"></embed></div>Black Bear Lodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07528449402203896495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37182460.post-27405682343489131722011-01-14T16:20:00.001-06:002011-01-14T19:33:43.380-06:00Preparing for World Championship Kitty Kat Races - here this weekend!<div style="margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO5Rj4Sc7VZcwDLVrXcyLz978Yl30YJeYsh0Tm_UQCdaPfSblfWtMIZo8ZqQ0XtKdL89IOMqFU7umg7fVfTUUtC9wRXyvqecSuu7YVvr5GknZlpRBDO1cxGqgVK_i0q71zRu8Sjw/s1600/IMG_8701.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO5Rj4Sc7VZcwDLVrXcyLz978Yl30YJeYsh0Tm_UQCdaPfSblfWtMIZo8ZqQ0XtKdL89IOMqFU7umg7fVfTUUtC9wRXyvqecSuu7YVvr5GknZlpRBDO1cxGqgVK_i0q71zRu8Sjw/s400/IMG_8701.JPG" /></a> </div><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">A huge winter storm is heading our way this weekend with varied forecasts from 6-12 inches expected to fall Saturday! With the cold temps we have had and more cold temps in the forecast for next week, we are very enthusiastic about the winter snowmobile season ahead. The Farmer's Almanac is also in our favor with a <a href="http://www.farmersalmanac.com/weather/2010/08/29/2011-winter-outlook-the-wait-is-over/">"cold and very snowy" outlook</a> for Wisconsin this winter. <br />

He took up residency last winter outside the main office; we tried all winter to photograph him as he would trot past our front door or walk through the resort. Our Manager even came face to face with him on the lake front one day but did not have camera in hand! We found his tracks in the snow by the Treehouse yesterday, a sure sign that we will see him soon. Hopefully we can get a photo of him to share this winter! We saw squirrels carrying whole hot dog buns down the driveway today, which was very funny, a guest must be feeding them. Our Snowshow Hares have turned completely white, as have the weasels. Did you know that when the short-haired weasel turns white it is called an ermine? We watched one run across the trailer parking lot a few days ago; first time we can recall seeing one on the resort. When you stay at the Black Bear Lodge located on Little St. Germain Lake, you never know what kinds of wonderful wildlife you will encounter.Black Bear Lodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07528449402203896495noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37182460.post-48572363674554170392010-12-01T12:31:00.006-06:002010-12-01T14:55:08.942-06:00Christmas Magic!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqmajb_mdd2utf_48jVeO0WhWGcBD3YTm1T5mQwI54gSp68oglPl4ellQldpmEAiE-rdEUzQyGlQ1F7jtq80ZuOPUmmw7cUofoscI8u45ihbiGkQbXM2VyGyFDvfbaaFPIJmVt/s1600/DeluxeLodgeHomeChristmas.JPG"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 213px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5545804521085206818" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqmajb_mdd2utf_48jVeO0WhWGcBD3YTm1T5mQwI54gSp68oglPl4ellQldpmEAiE-rdEUzQyGlQ1F7jtq80ZuOPUmmw7cUofoscI8u45ihbiGkQbXM2VyGyFDvfbaaFPIJmVt/s320/DeluxeLodgeHomeChristmas.JPG" /></a> With new snow falling today, we are looking forward to the start of winter sports and the Holidays.
