TBC Art, Craft & More Event

Teddy Bear Care Corporation made the decision to get back to work after the five long months of lock-down from the Covid Virus in our state. This decision was made by the TBC Event Committee, once the GREEN status was announced by State Officials, with certain restrictions for safety. August 8th, 2020 was the date set, to be held at the Fairdale Inn-Mystery Finds 422 Rt. 88 in Carmichaels, PA.

Although we had several vendors cancel due to other issues, we had a wonderful turn out. Everyone who participated arrived on time, and set up went smoothly! The TBC booth served refreshments of walking tacos, soft drinks, cookie kits, pepperoni rolls and ALL of the usual TBC merchandise! The Volunteers did a GREAT JOB, as usual talking with the visitors of the day and “working” the LOVE for the animals!!

ALL the vendors' talents were judged by our four local community members. Adam Kelly of Mystery Finds, Charlie Perkins of RT 40 Classic Diner, Officer Melissa Adamson of the Cumberland Twp. Police Dept. and “Miss Norma” of the Flenniken Library were the Judges for the day.

The following vendors won prizes and ribbons:

Donna Roberts won a blue ribbon for her entire booth, of which one portrait in particular impressed the Judges. It was the graphite portrait of the late Co-Founder of TBC and her brother, Brian Roberts.

Danielle Nyland of Studio 1331 won First Place Blue Ribbon and top monetary prize for her booth and the Judges were impressed by her Tractor Picture and HDR Photography.

Sharon Grainey of Love Every Stitch won Second place and gift card award for her talents of crafts displayed.

Wendy Morris of “Cold Nose Bakery” won Third place and a gift card award for her dog cookies.

Fourth place ribbons were awarded to: Valerie Grimm for her unique hand towels and Debbie Lightener for her interesting color street nails.

All in all the Teddy Bear Care Gang was SO VERY HAPPY to be able to get back into the fundraising work to support their foster animals and operations of TBC! We THANK ALL OUR VENDORS and our Judges for participating in the event!
