Bear Pride 2015
Meet & Greet Party
It all starts here. Where it goes is up to you. This is the event that begins as a diary entry aptly named “Woof! Did you see him?!” Go ahead, introduce yourself, and remember, you’re in a room full of new bear friends.
Friday, May 22nd, 5:00PM – 2:00AM
Included in the Run Package at no additional cost
Boxer and Pajama Party
Are you bear enough to “shake it” in your boxers or pjs? Check your street clothes at the door, and join us for a dance party with great beats and wall-to-wall bears. The dance floor will come alive with a variety of boxers and pajamas. Show team spirit, your love of a certain super hero, or your favorite brand. Draw some attention to those drawers- go wild, be bold, be daring. Just be there.

Bears, the Baths, & Beyond
Do you know what’s good for your complexion? Steam. Really, trust us. Steam works. You know what else is good for your complexion? A facial. Try it if you don’t believe us. You know what is better and twice as good? A Steamworks facial. The steam rooms are sure to inject some life into your pores. Hang with friends or make some new ones. Just remember, the towels are short and the sights are long…

$25 – Add-on to your Run Package, or purchase as a separate excursion
Trolley Tour of Chicago
First time in the Windy City? This is a great way to see some of Chicago’s landmarks while relaxing, as someone else does the driving. Sit back, enjoy an adult beverage (or two), and sightsee for a bit. Please note: we cannot be held responsible for the sudden outbursts of excitement by the tour guide. Feel free to change seats to get a better view of the city or that guy with the hot tattoo two rows up. After all, that is why you are at BP 21 – to meet new and exciting people on a trolley. Ok maybe not. Enjoy the ride.
Friday, May 22nd, 1:00PM – 4:00PM
Saturday, May 23rd, 1:00PM – 4:00PM
$45 – Add-on to your Run Package, or purchase as a separate excursion
Boat Tour of Chicago
Bueller? Bueller? Play hooky for a while and go for a ride on the historic Chicago river. Hop on board the Seadog, and tour the city made famous by Ferris Bueller and The Dark Knight while enjoying some complimentary adult beverages. You probably won’t see a tall dark handsome fella dressed in black latex unless the boat goes ashore at IML, but the buildings are all there. Revel in the excitement of the architectural wonders from the boat as you navigate the water way for this private three hour tour (three hour tour). I dare you to look for Gilligan and the Skipper now that you have read that description.
