CHROME BEAR II is here and available for auction!! It was very sad when "Bearly There" went missing on the first night of the exhibit. Michael MacTavish has recreated a new bear. Welcome Chrome Bear II! Now up for auction. See details on Chrome Bear II's listing!
Bidding will continue at the Live Auction on Thursday, October 15, 2009, at the Log Cabin Restaurant. Bidding will continue on-line until 6 p.m. on Wednesday, October 14. If you are unable to attend the live auction you may supply a Proxy Bid here on the on-line auction (your highest bid) in order to participate in the live auction, if not, you must be present at the live auction in order to bid and win the bear of your choice. During the live auction a representative will stand in your place and bid up to your indicated highest bid until that number is reached.
