Meet Cubby

Hi! I’m Cubby the Cupboards Bear. You can call me Cubby. 

I’m here to help Priority Partners. We are on a mission to spread happiness and good health. 

  • I was born on Bear Island, Maryland. 
  • I was rescued as a cub from the Potomac River by hikers. 
  • I was raised by a friendly beekeeper in Wicomico County. 
  • Favorite things: 
    • Healthy foods 
    • Helping others 
    • Making people smile 
  • Hobbies: 
    • Cooking healthy meals 
    • Dancing 
    • Giving high-fives 
  • Favorite food: Honeydew melon 
  • Favorite colors: Purple and teal 

This summer, Cubby is asking all his friends to make a promise — to be safe, smart and kind at the pool, the lake or anywhere you swim!

Water Safety Tips:

  • Always swim with a buddy and never swim alone.
  • Listen to lifeguards and follow pool rules.
  • Walk — never run — on pool decks and wet surfaces.
  • Keep my hands to myself — no pushing, roughhousing or dunking others.
  • Wait my turn on the slide and keep a safe distance from the person ahead on the ladder.
  • Take rest breaks, especially on hot days.
  • Drink water before, during and after swimming to stay hydrated.
  • Reapply sunscreen after getting out of the water.
  • Get out of the water right away when thunder or lightning appears.
  • Tell a grown-up immediately if someone is in trouble in the water.

I will be at different events around Maryland with Priority Partners. Check back here to find out where I will be next! Come say ‘Hi” and give me a high-five!
