21st Annual GTA Polar Bear Run - Head for the HillsThe 21st annual Georgia Polar Bear Run will kick off this year on Saturday, December 26th at the Starbucks/Sprouts parking lot in Roswell, and wind our way north to Blue Ridge, GA.

Preparations are underway for the 21^st Annual Polar Bear Run.

This annual event is the last drive of the year and traditionally takes place on the last Saturday of the Year.

It is typically our largest drive turnout of the year with 40-80 cars from all clubs, regularly attending.

Last year’s drive to Cloudland Canyon State Park was attended by 46 cars.  At its peak, the PBR was attended by 107 cars, led by a 1973 Cadillac ambulance with a working siren, or as some might call it a "sirene."

For the past three years, the drive has started at Atlanta Motorsports Park.  AMP graciously made the offer to host our start again this year, but to accommodate for Covid-19 safety and social distancing, this year’s drive will begin in Roswell GA at the parking lot behind Starbucks located at 10800 Alpharetta Hwy, Roswell, GA 30076.  This is at the corner of Hwy 9 and Mansell Rd, where many GTA drives begin. The drive will end in beautiful downtown Blue Ridge GA.  Driving directions will be distributed with a list of local restaurants.  After we disperse for lunch, anyone that would like to gather at Grumpy Old Men Brewing at 1315 East Main Street in Blue Ridge for an adult beverage is welcome.  GOM is located about one mile up E. Main from our restaurant parking area.

This drive is used as a fundraising event for ALS.  Voluntary cash donations are greatly appreciated.  We typically raise $1000+ for ALS.  So please consider bringing along a little extra dough for ALS.

Thanks,
