2016 Arctic Man Guide web2

16 • ARCTIC MAN • 2016 • www.ArcticMan.com EVENTS & ENTERTAINMENT Arctic Man race director Howard Thies says to expect the usual forms of entertainment, Alaska Motor Mushers Club races, drags, live music, food, beer tent – all the things that make Arctic Man just that much more fun. (And don’t forget the Guinness World Record attempt!) BAR TENT AND SHUTTLE BUS As a free service, Arctic Man guests can be transported from the bar tent back to their camp on a shuttle. The shuttle is for anyone who has been drinking. So hop on board and tip the driver. After all, he or she is putting up with a rowdy bunch. If you plan on drinking, walk – don’t ride – to the bar. Plan to use the shuttle, and watch out for friends and family. As Thies said, “I’m trying to make this a family event, not a drunken party.” CELL PHONE COVERAGE Arctic Man thanks AT&T for the cell phone service they’ve provided for the past few years. 4G service will again be avail- able. OUTHOUSES Do you consider yourself a king of Arctic Man? Then you deserve a proper throne. If you don’t want everyone messing up your RV toilet or if you don’t think it will function properly in the extreme cold, call (907) 452-1480 to secure your very own outhouse. FIREWOOD Fires are permitted in your camp area. Arctic Man has not secured a vendor as of yet for purchasing at the compound so be sure to check their website and plan accordingly. Rules of the camp include no burning of pallets (nails have been a problem in the past) and no throwing glass in the fires. And, as weird as it is to write these words – feel free to bring a couch but do NOT leave it behind, attempt to burn it or dump it in the Dumpsters. CAMPGROUND RESERVATIONS Campground reservations start at $140 if paid early. Sites are secured for the previous occupant each year until March 1. After that, sites are given up to waiting list. The Arctic Man compound is plowed and constructed annu- ally and offers limited space for campers and RV’s. Camping groups must reserve campsites and register with Arctic Man organizers. The cost to do so after February 15 is $145. Paypal credit card payments are available online. Campsites include plowed parking, access to medical tent, outhouses, garbage dumpster and the opportunity to be close to all the action. Previous Arctic Man campers have the first op- portunity to reserve their campsite. After March 1, however, all sites are up for grabs. Find the registration form online, www. arcticman.com.
