Join us at Bear’s Smokehouse BBQ- New Haven on Saturday, June 8th, 2024 for a day of mascots &  FUNdraising! Bear’s is calling together our partners from across the State of Connecticut to join us in the fight against childhood hunger! 

The Mascot Meet up will feature a day of activities, vendors, live music, and fundraising. Our brewing partners at New England Brewing Company will also host a 21+ Beer Garden for our adult attendees.
