Beartown 23
Join the friendliest bears for a weekend of fun and fundraising!!
Oregon Bears Inc. is proud to announce: Beartown 23 - Bearbarella!!
June 7th-10th, 2018, at the Jupiter Hotel in Portland , Oregon, with proceeds to benefit Sankofa Collective NW (Formerly the Portland black PFLAG chapter).
This year we are heading out to the deepest regions of Bear Space, and exploring Uranus!
Or, maybe just some of the local neighborhoods.... in an effort to save the Bear Universe! From what you ask? That’s up to you! We are happy to announce we are returning to the Jupiter Hotel! We only have a limited number of rooms, so once registration opens you’ll have to move fast! Click here for how to contact the hotel.
Beartown 23 will also see the return of the Mr. Oregon Bear and Cub contest to Beartown, which will also include a banquet dinner, dessert and a silent auction! We are happy to welcome the Vintage Tour Bus Company and your driver Sean Kennedy in for transportation to/from the events.
We would also like to thank our sponsors:
