Bear Ballot BoxWe are bringing the bear back to Bear Creek with the addition of our new black bear storytime mascot.  Our little bear is counting on each of you to help him.   This bear cub doesn’t have a name yet, so he’s asking all of his new storytime and library friends to help choose his name. 

The ballots and ballot box are located in our children’s section.  The three names on the ballot are: Honey, Buddy or Cubby.  Voting will be held November 11 - November 30th.  Our bear cub’s new name will be announced at our weekly storytimes during the first week in December. 

Come cast your vote and welcome our new little bear to the Katherine Tyra @ Bear Creek family!
