Teddy Bear Picnic 2008

The June 3 "meeting" is our annual Teddy Bear Picnic. Once again, the official start time has been moved up to 6:30 (though you can arrive earlier or later).

It's at the same place as last year, and very little has changed other than there's a Wal-Mart in addition to the traffic light at 53rd and Meridian now. The fact that 53rd is under construction hasn't changed, except in the location of the construction (it's currently closed just west of Broadway), so if you're getting off I-135 that's something to be aware of - you may be better off taking 235/K-96 west to Meridian or Ridge.

Guests are welcome, and do not need to feel obligated to bring anything. This is a great meeting to get to know us... it's just an informal potluck.

  • Meat: Karen (fancy hot dogs), Andy (hot wings), Joy (brats), Ed (hot dog buns, catsup, mustard & BBQ sauce)

Good Bears news

The bear (pictured in the September meeting) Joy donated for the Good Bears auction at the Jubilee earned our Good Bears den twenty-nine Good Bears for distribution. (The Toledo GBW den has a picture of the Good Bear on their site.)

Thank you, Joy and GBW!
