Be on the lookout for Eddy Bear, the official mascot of the Educators Rising Conference. He is excited about this year’s conference in Portland, and he wants to celebrate with you. This big, fuzzy bear will be roaming the hallways of the convention center – he’ll be everywhere! He loves taking selfies with you, too.
Each day, we will choose a host chapter for Eddy’s plush doppelganger. That chapter will spend the day showing Eddy the conference activities. Eddy is big and lovable, and he can’t help attracting attention. He loves the paparazzi, so be prepared to take a lot of photos. Post your photos on social media using the hashtags #EdRising26 and on the Educators Rising Conference app.
Make sure you’re actively using the conference app so your chapter can win the chance to spend the day with Eddy Bear.
If you want to take the Eddy Bear experience home with you, visit the conference store in Butler to purchase a mini Eddy. Mini Eddy is just as cute as the original, but he’ll fit in your carry-on bag.
