Friendly COVID Reminder

­

As the number of cases rise, the BCRR Board kindly requests that you attend club events following receipt of the COVID vaccination or a recent negative test to minimize the risk to yourself and others. Wearing a mask is still strongly encouraged and may be required at the venues we patronize.

Sunday NEEDS Hydration!

­

Who likes water during the Sunday long runs? Especially in the summer! Our Sunday morning hydration team could use a little more help as people go on vacation. Please contact Loris for more information on how to volunteer!
