Many bears are hanging out in the window of Mark and Alex Kues's home on the corner of Fir Drive and Locust Lane. The Kueses started the Bear Hunt in the community to help the kids have some fun.

SEELEY LAKE - Stuffed animals are appearing in windows of residences and businesses as the Seeley Lake community joins the global movement of "Teddy Bear hunts" for children.
The hunt is inspired by the children's book "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" written by UK author Michael Rosen. The intent is to give children a fun, socially distant activity to do with adults. Teddy bears have been spotted all over the world bringing joy and promoting a sense of community during a time of isolation.
Everyone is encouraged to put a bear in their window or in their yard for children to hunt. Photos can be posted in the public Facebook group "Seeley Lake Bear Hunt."
