Breakfast with the Bears/Stan Tekiela Book Signing – August 17th

August 17, 2021
7:00 am - 9:00 am

Location:
Vince Shute Wildlife Sanctuary

This is a limited time opportunity to experience a morning breakfast with the bears. Share your quiet morning period watching the early morning dew sparkle on the backs of our morning bears visiting the sanctuary. We’ve developed this program as a chance to see different bears that only frequent the sanctuary in the early morning hours. This is a favorable occasion to gain photos using early morning light. Come and join us for a superb continental breakfast and watch early dawn bear activity from the safety and comfort of our viewing deck.
