Hey guys hope you're doing well, and counting down the days for our trip in May!
You've been asking me for details about Bear Weekend, so here you go! 

We've been staying @ the Extended Stay on 2nd Ave. & Osborn. It's a good hotel, it's clean, and not to mention, it's in Metro Phoenix, so it's close to everything (Restaurants, bars, shops, food, museums, etc).

Extended Stay America - Phoenix - Midtown
217 West Osborn Road
Phoenix, AZ 85013
Phone: (602) 279-9000
www.extendedstayamerica.com
Check in: 3:00 PM
Check out: 10:00 AM
(You will need a Credit Card/Debit Card to reserve your room, AND they will not charge it until you check IN the hotel. Unless you want to pay upfront for your room, it's up to you)

Phurfest 2015 Pool Party
Saturday, May 2, 2015 from 11:00am - 5:00 pm @
Embassy Suites Airport @ 24th Street
2333 East Thomas Road, Phoenix, AZ. 85016
(about 10 minutes from where we would stay)
(The pool party fee was $30 last year, I'm not sure if it went up this year again, I'm still looking for it, but I'll keep you posted for sure)

You can always stay at another hotel, or stay @ the host hotel (check the details @ phurfest.org).
I'm just letting you know about this so you can start looking now, and you won't struggle at the end.
I booked our room,  and it came out to $200 for the weekend.
We're leaving El Paso, Friday, May 1st around 10:00am.
It would be awesome if we all stay in the same hotel, but we don't have to.

You're more than welcome if you want to share a room and the expense with someone.
So far, these are the people that are going, and sharing a room already:

Alex & CJ
Robert & Ignacio
Mario Pando
Mario Delgado

Food and drink is entirely on you. If you want to plan out a budget, we went last year with around $400 and came back with maybe $150-180. You don't spend that much really. Please let me know if you still have any questions, concerns, or you want me to update this message also by putting your name with whoever you're going to share a room with.

You can also check www.phurfest.org for more information!

PS. Please remember that this is a 21+ OVER event. The bears won't allow anyone under age of 21.

CHECK OUT SOME PICS FROM LAST YEAR'S PHURFEST ;)

Hey guys hope you're doing well, and counting down the days for our trip in May! I've done some research on where to stay and how much it will cost to go to Phurfest 2013 this year @ Phoenix.

We want to stay somewhere cheap for all of us (since we're only going to sleep there anyway), and close to Metro Phoenix (Metro Phoenix is where all the bars, restaurants, museums, and attractions are), I found a Days Inn in the same area.

DAYS INN PHOENIX AND CONFERENCE CENTER
502 Camelback Rd., Phoenix, AZ 85013 

Check in:After 3:00 PM
Check out:Before 11:00 AM

These are the WEEKEND TOTALS. Not daily rates.
if you book ASAP through their website (www.daysinn.com):

Quality Inn & Suites

You are more than welcome to look into another hotel, I'm just letting you know about this so you can start looking now, and you won't struggle at the end. Christian and myself are going to book our room NO LATER than this Friday, January 4, 2013, and we're leaving El Paso, May 3rd at 8:00am. It would be perfect if we all stay in the same hotel, but you don't have to.

Christian Gonzalez & Alex Ortiz

WE'RE REALLY EXCITED!! :D

PS. Please remember that this is a 21+ OVER event. The bears won't allow anyone under age of 21.

We could not be more excited about counting down the days until we leave El Paso and head out to Phoenix, AZ for the annual Phurfest event.

It's good to know that there is a bear community that's full of fun and that in return for this fun, they give to a charity or a group.

As of today, there are 19 days remaining...
