The Teddy Bear Parade is an Oregon City Community Event.. It’s a one-hour processional over a 1½
 Mile route. The Teddy Bear Parade has been a community highlight for Oregon City and the entire
 county for the past 12 years. The parade gathers stuffed animals and toys that will be given to the
 Emergency Services (Law Enforcement, Fire Departments, Emergency Rooms, Children’s Hospitals
 and Women’s Shelters), in Clackamas County. These are presented to Emergency personnel at the
 end of the parade.  The Teddy Bear Parade is dedicated to highlighting the needs of children in crisis
 and honoring our county's emergency personnel who protect the entire community.



We need volunteer for the day of the parade!
