Black Bear Diner Fundraiser Sunday Benefits Napa Nonprofit

Black Bear Diner in Napa will host a bear carving demonstration from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. Sunday to raise money for Aldea Children & Family Services.

The event will be at the diner at 303 Soscol Ave. in Napa.

Ray Schulz, the artist behind more than 200 custom carved bears for Black Bear Diner, will fire up his chainsaw and carve two, five foot bears in less than six hours.

One of the custom carved bears will be awarded to a local winner, with 100 percent of donations benefiting Aldea Children & Family Services. This is the final of a six-city bear carving tour for Schulz and Black Bear Diner.

Donations are now being accepted at participating Black Bear Diners. The suggested donation for a single ticket is $5; a suggested donation for a set of five tickets is $20. No Black Bear Diner purchase is necessary. Winners do not have to be present to win.
