Dinertoure Retournes to Eaton's SugarHouse!  South Royalton, VT.  Leave from the

RSVP: Dinerz

In 1821, Tom Eaton and his wife Betsy founded Eaton's Huggerhouse, an isolated  
retreat for violent convicts to learn how to express themselves through love and  
eventually make their way back into society.  One of Betsy's innovations was her  
flapJacks and flapJills (from whence we get the word flapjack).  Using maple syrup  
and a paint brush, the criminals would draw the evils of the world onto their  
pancakes and then eat them, showing that they could swallow their past malfeasances  
and move on with their lives.  The experiment ultimately failed.  A wildfire destroyed  
the original Huggerhouse in 1847, and the Vermont state government decided that  
they would stick with the more traditional "put criminals behind bars and leave  
them there until they're dangerous enough to antagonize society further" approach.  
  The Eatons reluctantly rebuilt the place as a sugarhouse, and kept on frying  
to make the world a better place.  So, in honor of penal pancakes and second chances,  
join us for breakfast on Thursday morning--we'll take a bite out of history and  
a bite out of crime.  The ride is free, bring small bills and a shiv.

Description / Difficulty level:  Do you like hanging around in warm, cozy cabins

food and springtime fun?  If so, this is the trip for you, because we'll be doing  
BOTH in one weekend!  We'll head up to Great Bear Cabin on Mt. Moosilauke around  
6 PM Friday (departure negotiable), cook dinner, play games, tell stories, and  
spend the night.  In the morning we'll head over to the Lodge for a busy work  
day, helping open the place up for the spring!  The Lodge (Famous For Fine Food)  
will provide lunch, dinner, and great times afterward - and *if* you want, you  
can even stay overnight and get breakfast for free too!  If this sounds like an  
epic weekend to you, please blitz back ASAP, because the Lodge wants to know how  
many people are coming to help.

SATURDAY SATURDAY SATURDAY
Event: Orienteering (Mt. Wolf edition)
Time: 9 am - 6 pm

sort of treasure hunt, we will use the skills of orienteering to reach the ultimate  
prize - the view from the top (which will be awesome). Sign up if you're looking  
to learn these skills for the first time, feel like a little refresher course,  
or just want an excuse to go off trail. Guaranteed-delicious lunch and snacks  
and good company will also be provided. So sign up because who doesn't like playing  
in the woods.
