Melanie: Shelby Co. In. has a statue of a bear or bears & and celebrate The Bears of Blue River Festival. Also I have heard of the Best name in Shelby Co. and Hancock Co. The Statue would be I think on the circle in Shelbyville. Hope this will help, Good Luck Ann

Oh, Ann!!!! Do you think it's possible this could be the statue I've been looking for? Is this Shelby Co., IN? Do you know if there is anything about a fight between a BEST/BESS/ etc, and a bear? Can someone look that up for me? Can anyone get any information about this statue, and the bear festival? Please email me privately, if the list isn't interested. Thanks again--BIG TIME THANKS!!!!!
