After a quarter century, we're finally getting good at this. In fact, you might say that we're Tube Pros. This is the 10th year that the Bear has been awarded. We've yet to have a two time winner but, there is getting to be a crowd of names on the plaque. This was the second year in a row of low, slow water. The bumps, scrapes and bruises were few; the Next Generation had the most injuries. Our winner was runner-up a few years ago and this year she had to set out every tube run because of a bad back.
