A Lily Fan caught Tasha up the white pine “Cub Tree” in the snowstorm last evening. Could the wind and snow have given Tasha a sense of danger?

Toni was the closest guess for Lucky's out of hibernation date. Georgeanne was the closest guess for Holly's date. They won the contest.
I received a message from Sarah Rose about the Mystic Lake Casino gathering on April 28. She is only 5 days away from finalizing numbers for that and needs 25 people to sign up to break even. The cost per attendee is $30 to cover expenses, preferably through PayPal. Go to this link for more info https://www.facebook.com/events/203389093575050.
It’s Volunteer Week with podcasts each day from the Bear Center through the big drawing on Friday. It’s a week of thank you’s for all that the volunteers do. As we said in the podcast today, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G018i3NKrZo, volunteers are making a huge difference for bears.
Thank you for all you do.
