**“RosenShontz Revival” Family Concerts** Millions of people grew up listening to RosenShontz songs and continue to share them with their kids, grandkids, and even great-grandkids! 

Since Gary’s passing, Bill Shontz has not been performing these beloved songs. However, he is now partnering with the talented Mitch Chakour to bring back the joy of the classic RosenShontz Duo’s Teddy Bear Picnic Revival Concert. It promises all the fun of a picnic, with plenty of thrills and sing-along opportunities. 

The concert will feature classic RosenShontz hits, including "Rock 'n' Roll Teddy Bear" and "One Shoe Bear." Audiences will also enjoy favorites like "Teddy Bear," "Christopher Robin," and "Bare Necessities." And, of course, no Teddy Bear's Picnic would be complete without the iconic "Teddy Bear's Picnic."

Additionally, you can look forward to songs from Bill's award-winning release, "Teddy Bear's Greatest Hits." This includes original songs such as "Miranda the Panda" and "Teddy Rockin'." 

Expect real, live dancing teddy bears, plus the famous Teddy Bear Toss, where all the picnickers throw their teddy bears into the air at the same time! Don't forget to bring your camera to capture the fun! This is much more than a concert—it's a celebration! Come early and bring your own bears and picnic. Teddy bears, dolls, and other stuffed animals always get in for free. It’s a wonderful family event!
