Fred Bear Day EVENT
A Celebration of Fred Bear's Legacy
In 1999 the mayor of Grayling proclaimed March 5th as Fred Bear Day. Every year bow hunters and outdoor enthusiasts gather together to share their experiences and honor the legend himself. The gathering takes place in Grayling, MI and the annual event has grown from a one day event to a
three day celebration!
From Arrow Salutes to Live Auctions
The weekend of celebration starts with a meet and greet, followed by a outdoor trade show the next day. The highlight of the weekend is the 21 Whistling Arrow Salute in remembrance of Fred Bear followed by a luncheon with guest speakers, live auction and raffles.
