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

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!

After many families brought their used Bear Naked bags for the Terracycle program, those who did got a free Bear Naked shirt.  We were happy to give out 8+ shirts that evening.  The classic green grass and the Boulder blue sky was given the additional Bear Naked neon orange that day.

And even as the swim got cut a little early due to thunderstorms, I was aided by Mr. Charlie to give out the last quarter of sampling.  Seriously, Boulder people love Bear Naked.  Saw one guy attempt to eat our compostable spoons (made of cornstarch).  I think he ended up digesting only a fraction of the spoon; I ended up giving that a guy a bag just for the sake of choosing quality functional food groups.  I did a world a favor that day :)

Danskin Tri - and the Women who Rock’d it!

Posted on July 27th, 2009 | by Jim & Lindsay (LJ) | No Comments »

Wow what amazing women! This weekend we went out to the Danskin Triathlon, a women’s only event, and were blown away by the powerful and dedicated females who rocked this Tri!

Saturday we were at the DCU center in Worcester, MA for the Danskin Tri expo and registration handing out parfaits and snack packs.

Sunday we drove down to Webster, MA at 5am for the big event! In addition to the 3500 participants (ranging from 14-79 years old), the Webster Memorial Beach State Park was filled with their family, friends and supporters cheering on the gals and having a good time!

One woman is participating in all 10 (!!) Danskin Triathlons all over the country to raise money for breast cancer research! She has already met her initial goal of $10,000 and has increased her goal to $20,000!!! We were so touched by her story and happy we could be there to give her and all of the women a post-race Bear Naked granola snack!

Wow’d at the Powwow Tri!

On Saturday we went out the the Powwow Triathlon in Amesbury, MA- and all I can say is WOW! What an awesome event with amazing athletes! One woman told me Bear Naked was “the talk of the race” which was fun to hear, and all we could talk about was how FAST so many of these Tri-gals and guys could swim, ride and run!

Be sure to check out the pics below and take a look at our calendar (at the right hand side of our blog here!), and be sure to stop by the bright orange Bear Naked tent to pick up a parfait or sample snack pack at one of the upcoming events in your area! :)

Organized by On Your Mark Events, the ‘Tri For Fun Series’ is designed for novices but also offers a great time trial/training for experienced athletes. Approximately 1100 participants did the 400 yard swim, 11 mile bike distance and 3.1 mile run. Our awesome Bear Naked team was the only concessionary vendor at the event and everyone LOVED us!
