As Easter has come around, so has your Berrima Bear newsletter!

If any of you were here for the Australia Day celebrations in January, you would have noticed that the Berrima Bear Companys mascot, BB the bear, participated in this years Grand Parade! Riding on a Hiland Trike, BB waved to the hundreds of people who were ever so thrilled to see a teddy bear riding a motor bike!! Certainly popular with the children, maybe even more so with the "big kids"!

We are also in the process of organizing some teddy bear classes. Even if you make bears yourself, there are always little tips and tricks to learn to make bear making a whole lot easier! If you are new to the art or have been making for years, we will have a class organized for you.

Beginners and professionals alike, what a fabulous way to meet other bear people like yourself, swap tips, make new friends, and even have a bear to take home!! When we have the class dates and costs organized, we will publish them in the newsletter and also on the web site, so check every now and then if you are interested!
