Jake enjoyed meeting family and friends at the Anschutz's Holiday Brunch. It gave us a chance to spread the Good Bear message. He got lots of hugs and had more than a few cookies. Jake "The Elf"

Jake's Portrait At The Beach

Meet Jake, GBW’s Traveling Bear. Lovingly created by GBW Vice President Elizabeth Taylor, Jake is a gorgeous 16” golden curly mohair bear. He was introduced to the world at Orlando’s IDEX show in January 2007.

 

Since then Jake has traveled the world, filled with love that he has shared with his traveling companions and folks he’s met along the way! He is still traveling, and his show button eyes shine brightly when he reads his extensive journal and looks at the treasures he has acquired!

 

Jake will be auctioned at GBW’s Charity Auction which will be a highlight of Pat Moore’s “Teddy’s Garden Party” Show in San Jose, CA on July 18, 2009. Plan now to be part of this special happening!
