Just a heads up, if you DO NOT already own your passport, and are intending to be able to come to Giant's Awakening this year...you really need to look at getting the passport process started within the next few days.

We hope to see you all here!

Extra Info About Passports:

According to the US State Department website for passports,

"As of ( Tuesday April 3, 2012 ), we are processing routine applications in approximately 4-6 weeks from the time of application."

Which is ideal, however they also stated that:

"Processing times can vary depending on workload and occasional unforeseen circumstances such as natural disasters. During busier times, such as the summer travel season, we encourage customers to expedite their applications if traveling in less than 10 weeks."


The fees on a Passport Card, which is all you need for land travel, can be found here: http://travel.state.gov/passport/fees/fees_837.html
It looks like $55.00 US (likely plus all applicable taxes) for the passport card.

Location is set for 130 Dorion Loop Rd Dorion, ON Directions to follow soon.

Dorion is a small community about an hour outside of Thunder Bay. The site owners are super excited to have us and there is a ton of space. The site has running water and no noise restrictions since the site owners house is a 3-5 min walk away from where we would be camping. The only rules for the sites are as follows:

- No Food in tent due to bears in the area, all food MUST be kept in cars at all times when not in use
- Garbage MUST be cleaned up daily and put in a safe location (to be determined) due to the bears in the area
- No one is allowed to go to the site owners house except in case of dire emergency
