100 yrs of Steiff Teddy Bear at Epcot 11/22-11/24

[BalooCA]

Ok all you collectors.....for those of you who haven't heard Epcot is hosting a celebration of 100 yrs of the Teddy Bear with Steiff. I only found out about this about 2 weeks ago. Being a big Steiff and Disney fan I was really excited about this. Unfortunately I have been unable to arrange time off or my finances to justify going in such a short timeline. I'm hoping someone else out there might be going. The thing I really wanted to see was the Life Size Zoo and the Teddy Bear Displays. If anyone is considering attending the whole conference or the public day on Sunday 11/24. If you take picutres I would really, really love to see them, that's all. If you take picture, post them or I will pay for copies....as I understand it, the exhibits are going to be a once in a lifetime kind of thing.
Thanks

I will be at WDW during that time frame, but did not plan on attending that event. Are there going to be displays that you can see without being part of the event? If so, I would be happy to try and get some pictures for you.

You can PM me or email with more info, if you like.

I sent you a private message, but I'll post it too. The event is open to the public on 11/24 (Sunday) for anyone who has admission to Epcot that day. As I understand it there are at least two exhibits, the Life Size Zoo and a Steiff Teddy Bear archive collection including some bears that have never been displayed before.

Wow...I collect Steiff bears and wish that we could see it as well! But we will be leaving WDW on the 8th.
