TennaBear Needs Your Help! 🍵🐻

Our beloved mascot TennaBear is a tea-green bear from a mysterious planet and we need talented volunteers to help bring TennaBear to life! If you’re under 5'6" (168cm) tall and love to dress up, please email schang@japantowntaskforce.org! Actors will rest/trade places between 20-minute shifts, so you can volunteer with your friends. All volunteers receive a light lunch/snack. TennaBear actors receive a $25 Vistor Center gift certificate for a full shift.
