**Bears Take Center Stage in Geneva Public Library Basket Raffle**

Geneva, NY – The Geneva Public Library is ramping up excitement with their annual basket raffle and a particularly popular theme this year: **bears**! One standout among their 38 live raffle baskets is the "#9: Bears are Everywhere" basket, donated by Jenn and Barb. This bear-themed basket includes a variety of goodies such as books like *Bear Aerobics* and *Baking Day at Grandma’s*, and an assortment of plush bears including TY collectibles such as "Fuzz," "Curly," and "Picadilly," along with other unique contributions like Blondie, Twin Baby Brown Bears, and Ada Mae Bear.

The raffle baskets, featuring a wide variety of themes for all interests, are now live on the library’s website. Tickets can also be purchased online via PayPal, offering convenience for those unable to visit the library on sales days. The library has already held one ticket special and is encouraging supporters to watch their page for future deals.

Proceeds from the raffle will support the Geneva Public Library and its programs, continuing its mission to serve the community. Stay updated through the library's announcements and join in to support this local cause while snagging your chance to win a delightful basket.
