Live Bear Naked Tour 2009

Bike, Tri, and a Boston Goodbye

Posted on September 1st, 2009 | by Jim & Lindsay (LJ) | No Comments »

This week was our final week of the Bear Naked New England Summer tour. We had an amazing time this summer and I hope all of you who stopped by our tent for a snack or a grocery bag enjoyed our presence too! There were a lot of familiar faces at these last couple events, with multiple people telling us they had seen us at different events over the summer and were excited to see us again!

Friday we went out to the last Bike Friday at the City Hall Plaza in downtown Boston. This terrific green initiative is supported by the Mayor and Hub on Wheels, and it encourages commuters to ride their bikes in to work instead of driving! We were excited to make it out to the last Bike Friday of the season and hope to join in the fun again next year!

Sunday we wrapped up the tour with one final event up in Kennebunk, Maine- the Fireman’s Triathlon! It was a gorgeous day and we had a blast serving parfaits and snack packs to the participants and the enthusiastic crowd! At first the free pancakes served by the American Legion seemed a bit tough to compete with, but as tales of our free parfaits and shopping bags snaked through the crowd we soon had people running up to our table in droves! One woman even exclaimed that her “daughter is ignoring her pancakes and eating my parfait- I came back to see if I could get her one of her own!” We of course obliged and were happy to serve her, her daughter, and the rest of this great crowd!

So thats about it folks- thanks for helping us make this summer truly awesome! As we always say- keep Living Bear Naked!

Peace

Lindsay and Jim

Another New England Weekend Living Bear Naked!

Saturday we went out to Rhode Island to support the swimmers of the Save the Bay swim event! The swim benefits the Save the Bay organization which works to protect and preserve the Narragansett Bay. The swimmers swam from Newport to Jamestown in a 1.7 mile swim! We were there for the picnic afterward where our parfaits, snack packs, and reusable grocery bags were a big hit!

Sunday we went out to Bridgeport, CT for the Parkcity Mossman Triathlon. The sun rose over the beach as the swimmers prepared to get the race started! We were there serving Bear Naked granola and yogurt parfaits, and the grocery bags we donated as runners bags dotted the landscape! It was a rather perfect setting for a Tri, and being right near Norwalk, CT (where Bear Naked was originally founded) we chatted with a lot of folks who knew Bear Naked well and a few of whom new Brendan and Kelley personally!

Racin’ through the North Shore!

This week we went up to Salem, MA for the Witches Cup on Wednesday and to Beverly, MA for the Beverly Grand Prix on Thursday! Both of these Bike races were awesome events with a great crew of participants, tons of fans to cheer them on, and lots of love for the Bear Naked granola parfaits we were handing out.

We met a guy who had just got back from a trip to Mexico and had a sketch of an Agave plant (one of the key ingredients in our Mango Agave Almond flavored granola!). A group of the bikers were participants in both events and had a trip to the Cape planned for the weekend for a multi-day bike tour- now thats living Bear Naked!

Rockin’ the Naukabout Music Festival

Posted on August 12th, 2009 | by Jim & Lindsay (LJ) | 1 Comment »

We were out on the Cape for the weekend to support the runners of the Falmouth Road Race and the attendees of the Naukabout Music Festival! Naukabout is a clothing brand and a term that means “to relax and enjoy life’s best experiences”- which is what the music festival is all about! The concert vibed very well with the Live Bear Naked culture and everyone loved the Bear Naked granola and yogurt parfaits we were giving away!

The festival goers spent the afternoon chilling in the grass, listening to music, playing games (frisbee, hula hoop, and bean bag toss are a few that come to mind), and of course grabbing a snack when they were hungry! Our tent was located right next to the side stage which was a pretty perfect spot to hear some great tunes and share the granola love with the crowds that gathered for each artist.

We met some pretty neat people including some guys doing yoga on top of a rope tied between 2 trees! One of these yogis was hungry so he grabbed a parfait and jumped back on the rope and did some poses while eating his Bear Naked!!

One of the highlights of the day was taking Bear Naked parfaits back into the ‘artists only’ area and serving granola to the bands! We even got to walk out on to the stage and serve parfaits to the Ryan Montbleau Band while they were setting up! The drummer later told us “your parfaits saved my life! I had 2 right before we played our set- I think I would have passed out otherwise!”

We’re so glad we could be there to provide Bear Naked snacks to Rusted Root, the Ryan Montbleau Band, Emily Elbert, all the other artists, and the awesome crowd who made the Naukabout Music Festival such a great day!

Falmouth Road Race

Posted on August 12th, 2009 | by Jim & Lindsay (LJ) | No Comments »

This weekend was amazing! We went out to Cape Cod for the Falmouth Road Race and the Naukabout Festival! There were over 10,000 runners at the Road Race and they swarm the little town of Falmouth for 3 days!

We were at the Expo on Saturday to give the runners a Bear Naked granola parfait after they picked up their numbers and wandered around the tons of cool booths! Sunday was an absolute blast while we went out to support the runners and their fans at the Road Race! The morning started off with a flag raising, band, and even a fly over! One runner said “you guys win the award for the best food at the Road Race!”- and we were happy to be there!

After his run, Bear Naked athlete Scott Ray stopped by for a parfait so we got to meet him as well! We met thousands of cool runners and volunteers, the sun was shining bright, and it was a pretty perfect day to be Living Bear Naked!
