From Donnie:
The Most Amazing Night of my Life Just occurred. I can't believe this that I was chosen out of 4 Awesome Guys to not only represent San Diego as a Whole but Southern CA as The New Mr. So Cal Bear. I owe my dream of this happening to the Fabulous Folks that came out this Weekend to Support and show Me Love this weekend. Mainly Papa Tony Lindsey and Blair Griffin (David), Scott B Smith and Richard Cook without you this would not be possible. I Look Up to each and every one of You.
Pre-Event Publicity:
Welcome to BearQuake 2014
On behalf of the Southern California Bear Club Alliance, Bears San Diego, and the BearQuake 2014 Steering Committee, I am pleased to welcome you to our weekend.
BearQuake grew out of an idea of forming an alliance between the various clubs in Southern California and elsewhere. A "Bear Weekend" was planned where we could all get together and get to know each other. A contest was also held for Mr. So Cal Bear and Cub. The success of that first event opened the door to future gatherings which has become "BearQuake".
The concept has remained the same: a weekend full of activities that are fun and exciting, a price tag that makes it worthwhile, and an opportunity to make new friends and visit with old ones.
The weekend has also become a major fund raising event for the host club. This year's beneficiaries are Special Delivery San Diego, Being Alive San Diego and The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.
We hope you join us for this weekend, get to know some of wonderful people participating in our event, and take away fond memories.
Jeff Rosenfeld
Chairman
