BEAR FRENZY is our annual Mr. Golden State Bear contest weekend. The title winner helps us all year round by raising money at our events (selling raffle tickets and being charming) for the club and gets to represent our club at selected events, including IBR in San Francisco (February).

The Bear Frenzy always happens on the weekend around the 3rd Saturday in August (exception was made in 2005 due to Hairison Street Fair scheduling their event on that same weekend).

The basic schedule for the weekend is: Greet Your Meat, Pool Party & BBQ, Contest, Victory Brunch. Our Bear Frenzy logo was designed in 2001 by Fran Frisch - thank you, Fran!

Fred received the total overall score and was announced Mr. Bear, and the judges decided the title of Mr. Cub should go to the contestant who came in 2nd place - Joel. They beat out the other two contestants Michael Dias (far left) and Phillip Strickland (second from left). Photo by Dan W.

Congratulations, Fred & Joel!
