Lions, tigers and.....BEARS?

Seeing bears all over town? BIG thanks to FUMC and the Hope Chamber of Commerce.

First United Methodist Church and the Chamber of Commerce of Hope is encouraging everyone in Hope and the surrounding towns, young and old alike to place "bears" in their windows so the kids can go on a "Bear Hunt" from the safety of their own vehicles.

"What a great way to to get out of the house and engage the children to look around for something other than a phone, tv, or dvd." FUMC said on their Facebook page.

Hope Chamber of Commerce said on their Facebook page, "Another great game for children!"

This is such a wonderful free gift for the community during this uncertain time and a cheerful way for people of all ages to get out and have some safe, fun family time. So grab your teddy bear, you're never too old to have one, place it in your window or in every window in your home for all the kids to see.

Be sure to load those sweet babies up in your car and whisk them off on their very own adventure, a Bear Hunt.

You can go to HERE https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=Waoa3iG3bZ4 and listen to the animated cartoon version "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" while you drive your precious cargo around searching for bears.

As you drive around hunting for "bears" take a picture of each bear you find and post it in the comments. Have fun!
