Weekend Update

Admin — Fri, 16 Mar 2012 01:18:28 +0000

We hope everyone is looking forward to great weekend ahead, with outstanding weather and good times in the forecast. Please feel free to bring those beach chairs and sand toys. We are planning to start the festivities after the Pabst race( which starts at 10).

We have just received a wonderful donation from our friends at the US Ski Team that was suppose to be here for Febfest. Since it was too late for that purpose, we have elected to auction off a official women’s team jacket (size 10) and a official team issue DH suit( adult small) at our Saturday Beach Party BBQ. Surfs up, see ya at the beach.

The Weekend Ahead 3/17&18

Admin — Wed, 14 Mar 2012 20:33:43 +0000

This weekend is likely the finale for the BOC this season. The weather has hit the hill hard. As the mountain had commitments to the Mountain Dew Tour this weekend, we are unable to get the lodge for our end of season pot luck. However, we have come up an alternative, last minute plan with what we hope will be a fun and unique way to cap off a great season…

Saturday (forecast is 60/sunny)

Pabst race (starts at 10am)/Club Championships(starts shortly after the Pabst race)

BEACH PARTY…Since nature rained down lemons, let’s make lemonade!!!!! we will lug up the grill and cook up sausages burger and dogs, crank up some Bob Marley, Jimmy Buffet and Beach Boys on the PA, set up some volleyball nets and whatever else we can come up with at the last moment. Later in the afternoon we’ll have our coaches recognize their athletes and the other customary acknowledgments. BYOB (we may a keg and drinks for kids), bring up deserts or anything you would bring to the beach. we plan on kicking this off around 2pm.

Sunday

J1/J2 race on Peril (starts at 9.30). We still could use some help with this season ending event.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS ALL DEPENDENT ON SNOW CONDITIONS AND SOME OR ALL OF THE EVENTS MAY BE MODIFIED OR CANCELLED!!!!!!!!

Please RSVP to boc@bromleyoutingclub.com we can get a rough headcount for the grill meisters.

See you all

The Weather Gods Mixing Things Up Again

Admin — Tue, 13 Mar 2012 02:23:27 +0000

As you look outside today anywhere in the northeast, it appears more like May then March. The forecast for the coming week is calling for more warm weather and is forcing us to consider making some changes to our traditional season ending events scheduled for the weekend of March 24th and 25th. We currently are considering moving our club championship, JISP race and year end social to the coming weekend of March 17th and 18th. These events and the already scheduled Pabst race, Mountain Dew Vertical Challenge and J 1/2 will need to be rearranged for the coming weekend(3/17&18). We hope to have a revised schedule completed by Wednesday(3/14) and you will be able to join us for an action packed weekend. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.

Year end review process

Admin — Fri, 02 Mar 2012 18:50:54 +0000

I want to get a quick update out to you. As our season begins to wind down, we have begun the process of reviewing staff and procedures which includes a survey to all membership to solicit feedback on what went well and what could be improved. We have formed a committee to draft the survey to membership and will have different form for staff and coaches. We expect to have it out in a couple of weeks. It is important that everyone complete it as your feedback is necessary if we are to deliver the experience that makes the BOC special.

January 28 & 29th

Hope this posting find everyone well and ready to move into the second half of the season. The Bromley crew has continued to do a great job of providing us a terrific playground, despite mother nature’s evil efforts. Most of our athletes will be around this weekend(due to postponed events) to enjoy some training before the crazy schedule’s of February and March kick in. Also, we are planning a BBQ for Saturday(28th) and would welcome any assistance and/or donations to help offset the cost/efforts of providing this wonderful fare for our members and staff.

This weekend’s events include an exciting boarder/skier cross competition on the Plaza hill for Saturday and Sunday. On Sunday afternoon we will be hosting the second Pabst race of the year on the East Meadow. These events are always fun and are great opportunity to work off your volunteer commitments.

We would like to remind everyone that our biggest fundraiser of the year is also approaching, Febfest. We are always looking for help in gathering outstanding auction items, please help our club by seeking out items from your business and personnel contacts. Let’s us know what you come up with.

BBQ Saturday

Admin — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 10:19:06 +0000

We are having another one of our world class BBQ’s this weekend. Keep in mind there are no “free lunches”, please contribute to the jar so we can continue to do it! Thank you….Stephan
