The 41st annual Teddy Bear Parade is returning to downtown Gresham and is expected to be fun for all ages. Participants and spectators are encouraged to bring their teddy bears and celebrate with family and children in the community.
Joe, Gloria Eggers, her family, and several employees participated in the parade. Her family and Joe drove his 1915 Ford Brass Era Model T, smiling, waving, and honking during the parade for the children. Employees drove the decorated junk trucks with teddy bears hanging all over them. The kids enjoyed the train whistle and the Klaxon hand-push ooga horn.
