Rocky Mountain Bears is a predominantly gay male organization for bears, cubs, and their admirers. The group is non-judgmental and does not participate in political activities. What does this really mean? It means that there are no standards you must meet, except wanting to have fun. Being comfortable with one's masculinity is of great importance to this group. Honesty, integrity, and just plain feelin' good about one's self are our goals. If such things are important to you, here are our By-Laws for you to look through.
In even plainer English...it doesn't matter what you look like. Rocky Mountain Bears isn't looking for members that fit only a specific body type. Be you a bear or a non-bear, all are welcome! So whatcha waitin' for?
We plan many varied activities for our members, ranging from bar nights, dinners, bowling, coffee, camping, just to name a few. Our aim is to provide something that hopefully encourages new members to join, as well as providing a forum to socialize. We encourage members and newcomers alike to join in the fun.
