BEARS:  Be Educated and Resposible Stewards

B.E.A.R.S
Be Educated and Responsible Stewards...

Low harvest of food sources (mostly nuts and seeds from last fall) left black bears throughout the region with little to eat going into winter hibernation. As they come out this spring and summer they are roaming further, looking for food. Please keep all trash and food stored properly.

Do your part to spread the word!
