The Names Are Coming In For The New Big Bear At Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite

We love how creative people are with names for our big teddy bears that join the Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite each year! Our tradition is that we add a new Big Bear each year, and you help us pick the name thru social media. Here was the big reveal!

Here Are The Top 10 Names Entered So Far!

Keep the names coming though. We’ll pick the top vote getter just before the doors to the Teddy Bear Suite open on December 1st. This new addition to the bear family of the Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite is our seventh big, larger-than-life bear.

Can you believe it? He/she joins six other bears that are bigger than me — Obie, Quinn, Edgar, Lambert, TisBeary, and Chappy, and the hundreds of other teddy bears that create the magic of the Teddy Bear Suite.

Want to know something very special about this year’s “naming of the bear?” The person who suggests the winning name, will win five raffle tickets for the chance to win this bear’s twin to call your own.

Double Trouble

How can you have your own big grey bear? Well, we’ve got twins this year — one for the suite and one for you to win. 

For the month  of December, you’ll be able to meet the new big bear in real life at Rosewater Market.

 

We’re having a month long raffle, tickets are $5.00 or 5 for $20.00. We’re so excited for the addition of this raffle to the Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite Fundraiser. People have asked us many times over the years, how they can get a big bear to call their own? Now you can!

All of the proceeds of the raffle go directly to the Martha’s Vineyard Boys & Girls Club’s Healthy Happy Kids, their program to address childhood hunger on the Island.

We will pick a name and the winner on the opening day of the Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite, December 1st.

Also, save the date for the 3rd annual Teddy Bear Trot happening during Christmas in Edgartown.

Martha’s Vineyard Teddy Bear Suite Hours

The Teddy Bear Suite will be open for the first three weekends in December, beginning on December 1st, at the Harbor View Hotel Captain Collins Cottage #21 in Edgartown. Our Events Calendar has all the days and hours. We’ll also be leading the Christmas in Edgartown Parade in three MINI Coopers with our new big bear and others. this is always a lot of fun.
