Many, many thanks for the HUGE effort this past Sunday.  Not only did we have a race to run but many of you started off the day digging out 600 feet of B-net fencing.  A favor was asked and the BOC army assembled.  Your efforts were a true testament of the strong fabric that our Club is made of.  The energetic volunteerism has been second to none.

Once again, I thank all of you for your willingness to help with the pleasant tasks, and the not-so-pleasant tasks.  I would like to individually thank all who worked on fencing Sunday morning but I know I would leave someone out.  Everyone, please know that your efforts are very appreciated.

Please note that the final weekend for the BOC  (Club Championship Weekend) will be March 27th and 28th.  It was originally scheduled for March 20th and 21st.  Due to busy race schedules for athletes and many activities at Bromley’s Spring Fling (March 20 & 21), it appears that the 27th and 28th will be a little less hectic for Club festivities.  A schedule of events for Saturday, March 27th, will be published within the next couple of weeks.

• The High School Slopestyle event that was scheduled for this Friday, Feb. 26th, has been cancelled.  There will not be a rescheduled event.
• The Diana Golden Series event scheduled for this Saturday, Feb. 27th, has been cancelled.  At this time, there are no free dates to reschedule this race.  It this should change, notice will be given as soon as possible.
• At this time, the Yolanda Ambrosecchio Memorial Pabst Race is still on.  Any changes will be published as soon as possible.

On Saturday, Feb. 27th, the BOC is hosting a Level 1 Diana Golden Series race.  This is a race for athletes with disabilities and we are excited to host the event the second year in a row.  We are looking for some volunteer help with registration, start area, finish area, course maintenance, announcing, etc.  Start time is 10:00am.  Race is on East Meadow.

On Sunday, Feb. 28th, we have our second Pabst Series Race.  This is the Yolanda Ambrosecchio Memorial race where the fastest J5 male and female will have their name added to the Yolanda Abrosecchio Plaque .  This is an afternoon race with registration taking place at the BOC at 11:30am.  The race will start at 1:00pm .  We are looking for volunteer help with start area, finish area, course maintenance, announcing, etc.  Race is on East Meadow starting at Coach’s Knoll.

Given the current and forecasted weather, is is very likely that JISP and the Innkeeper Race will be cancelled for tomorrow, Wednesday, February 24th.  We will make the final call in the morning when/if school cancellations occur.

Extra Cost Sharing

BOC coaches are available for all Pabst League races, SVC league races, NESA, USASA, and Freestyle events during the regular season as part of the BOC competition program. Any costs for transportation during the season will be split among the participating athletes. Arrangements for State Championships, Easterns, Nationals, Junior Olympics and any other competition beyond the regular season will be made by the BOC with parents and coaches. Coaching fees and expenses of the involved coaches, transportation, lodging, and all other costs will be split among the families of the athletes attending these events.  On-hill coaching fees for events that occur on the weekends are covered by the Club.

I know there are some folks who do not have the “traditional” President’s week vacation.  Some schools may go the following week for vacation.  Please let us know if your son/daughter will be at Bromley the week of 2/23 – 2/26.  The Club will be closed on Monday, 2/22.   Please email or call as soon as you can so I can get staffing in place.  Thank You!
