BEAR PRINTS • JUNE 23, 2022

Things are truly heating up at Bear Lake Reserve! We enjoyed every moment of our Father's Day Weekend festivities, and now we're looking forward to the biggest holiday of the summer: 4th of July. We also have a variety events such as Astronomy Night and Cooking with Fire approaching, as well as an exciting announcement to make at next week's Homeowner's Luncheon. All that and more in this week's Bear Prints.

Our monthly Homeowner's Luncheon has been moved to next Friday, July 1st. We hope this allows more of you to attend and meet our new developer, Barbara, in person! We'll also be announcing an exciting new addition to our activities program that outdoor enthusiasts won't want to miss. Can’t be there? Join us on Zoom (meeting ID: 361 350 9732). 

As noted in previous weeks, bears have been increasingly active around property this summer. Please continue to stay vigilant, lock your trash bins, and refrain from leaving any food outside or in your vehicles unattended. As we continue to emphasize the importance of all our bear safety precautions, check out this article from BearWise discussing what bears are up to in the month of June.
