A Gathering of Grizzlies

Here's the real deal photographed near the East entrance to Yellowstone last Spring. Give it another six weeks and these monarchs of the Rocky Mountains will be up and about, as their painted contemporaries will be moving around Park County.

There's real progress on reconstructing the new library, which will become the gathering point for the painted bears and which their sale will benefit. The teen area, which will be a paticular focus for the funds we raise, is framed out. The study rooms are almost visible.

The money that will furnish those rooms will come from the grizzly project. A special thanks to those who've been hauling the fiberglass bears around: Bob and Robin Berry, Bob and Yvonne Chandler, and Cook Moving and Storage.
