What The Event Is:

Each year, we partner with others to help create a special Christmas memory for some of the children and families around Lane County. We escort the children and families to the Build-a-Bear workshop in Valley River Center, where the children are given a free bear and outfit to decorate their own way! After that, its off to a party room by the movie theater for plenty of pizza and fun!  To finally cap the evening off, we present each family with a gift basket full of Christmas goodies and treats, along with gift cards good towards groceries and dinner!

The 2010 Bear-y Christmas was a magical night! We were able to provide bears to over 33 kids and gift baskets to 9 families! Below is the video taken from the 2010 event and be sure to check in with us for 2011!
