The Great Bear Festival was better than ever this year, thanks to tremendous community involvement. Our Title Sponsor, Toyota; Grizzly Bear Sponsor, Envoy Mortgage; and many other local sponsors helped make this community event possible. The beautiful venue at the Wachholz College Center added to guests’ enjoyment of a full day of entertainment, including performances on the amphitheater stage, a dunk tank featuring local celebrities, lawn games for kids and adults, a climbing wall, kittens, a kids’ free throw contest, and a fabulous Tommy Edwards concert in the evening. Great food, refreshing beverages, and the very best volunteers made the day unforgettable. Stay tuned for next year’s date.
Many thanks to all who supported by attending and to our many sponsors. All proceeds will fund our Rotary projects which have included the Miracle Field at Kidsports, Ashley Creek Park, the Wildtorium interactive Children's Museum, local scholarships, global education and water projects, and support of many community organizations.
