It’s time to start the season of camping for our semi-annual 18+ Bear Essentials Camp! Join Sarge and Gator as we visit Sakatah Lake State Park for a fun-filled camping weekend. Bring your bikes as within the park there is the Singing Hills State Trail, a 39 mile bike path that goes from Mankato to Faribault that runs directly through the park.
At Bear Essentials, you are required to be self sufficient. This means bringing your own tent, chairs, sleeping bag, and food! Don’t have a tent? See if you can borrow one, or share with someone else! This is an 18+ event. NO ALCOHOL IS ALLOWED AT THIS EVENT.
You MUST register to be able to attend Bear Essentials. To register, and for more in-depth information regarding the event: https://mnfurs.regfox.com/bear-essentials-may-2026
