Spring 2012
Andrew MacFarland
Entering our 90th year, we’re coming off a rough winter for winter sports enthusiasts. We’re optimistic about our warm weather programs shaping up soon, though. What seems to be emerging as a remarkably early spring should mean dry courts and calm waters for our tennis, rowing and paddling programs. Enthusiastic volunteers are planning and preparing as we read.
More than ever, we need your help in balancing our budget since our cross-country ski program revenues were low. Please help us pay our bills by completing your tennis, rowing and paddling memberships early and encourage your friends to join as well.
As part of our anniversary celebrations, we’re planning a large BOC presence in the Strolling of the Heifers parade and we’ll have a booth as well. Mark your calendars and plan to show up and march in the parade on June 2. You’ll hear more about this and it should be fun. Two new members, Chris Wocell and Everett Wilson, have brought new energy and ideas to the BOC Board.
The anniversary discussions have reinforced how fortunate we are to have BOC and how important it is to all of us. The same values that made it work in 1922 – volunteerism, love of the outdoors and outdoor sports, the enjoyment of sharing these activities with friends and family – are what makes it work today.
Please join in the celebration by becoming a member in 2012 and encouraging others to join, taking part in the Strolling of the Heifers Parade, actively participating in BOC sports, and being an active volunteer.
