Teddy bears get checkups
West Valley Presbyterian Church is inviting kids to have their teddy bears examined by a staff of real doctors and nurses at the church's fifth annual Teddy Bear Fair on May 11, 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Each bear will receive an official Well Bear certificate signed by the attending physician. Kids who don't have a teddy bear can obtain one at the fair's "Adopt-a-Bear Agency." More than 200 bears were adopted at last year's fair. The fair will also feature a teddy bear museum, games and attractions. A hot dog/chips/soda lunch is available for $1. The church is located at 6191 Bollinger Rd. in Cupertino.
