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

The Charles River Wheelmen are the largest cycling club in New England with over 2000 active members and this past weekend we went out to their Climb to the Clouds Summer Century Bike Ride! The club, and their Wednesday Morning ride were featured in The Boston globe this past week. This was the second of their 3 annual century rides. Riders leave from 2 locations for rides varrying from 45 to 100 miles. We supplied 500 samples and coupons for all riders at one of the water stops and the start / finish for the riders from Nashoba Regional H.S.
We set up to offer parfaits, for the riders doing the longer distances as they returned to the parking lot of Concord / Carlisle Regional H.S. a stone’s throw from historic and picturesque Walden Pond. A Bear Naked sponsored athlete named Liz stopped by with her boyfriend as they walked back from a swim in preparation for their tri in Lake Placid, NY next weekend. Great job to everyone out there!

This week I went to 4 Stop and Shops in 2 days to hand out samples of Bear Naked granola to customers as they were grocery shopping! In addition to our yummy BN granola and yogurt parfaits, we were also able to give out samples of our new Bear Naked GRAINOLA BARS!
If you haven’t tried one yet be sure to pick one up- scrumptious!

What a fun week out here in Boston! On Wednesday we went out to the Courtyard Marriott Hotel in Fitchburg, MA for the Longsjo Classic Registration evening! The riders were gearing up for this 4-day Pro/Am Bicycling Competition! The riders were excited for a parfait snack and we were thrilled to see the pros from all over the East Coast and even some from Canada!
On Sunday we were there to support the bikers and their fans with parfaits and snack packs during the grand finale races! It was an exciting day with our booth right next to the race course- only 100m from the finish line! The highlight of the day was when the Women’s Overall Gold Medal Winner and her teammate stopped by and doubled up on Bear Naked Granola parfaits- they definitely earned it!
