Bear Necessities Week   November 14-18 

Bear Necessities was started in 2001 by 3 Oregon City High School Students and a partnership with Danielsons.

The purpose of the program is to raise money to help Oregon City High School students who need assistance to make their holiday season a little brighter. Bear Necessities is an “all school” fundraiser. The Mr. and Ms. OC Pageant also raises money for Bear Necessities.   More info about Bear Necesssities....
