Latest Chapter News Tuesday, April 18, 2006 This edition of the BAC News Blast marks our return to a weekly frequency. You can count on receiving the latest chapter news and event information at the beginning of each week. A whole lot of great events came and went in the few weeks since the last blast. We hope your were able to take part in some or all of them! That being said, we're in no way taking a rest... there's a whole lot of fun ahead for the chapter. Now, on with this week's news... Gloria Whole Sets Fundraising Record Congratulations are in order to Gloria Whole, contestant for Miss Bay Area Rodeo 2006. On March 24th she held a chapter fundraiser at Marlena's to fufill one of the requirements for the royalty team. It was a fantastic event with lots of great entertainment, but of even more significant note--the event blew the minimum requirements out of the water and brought in over $700 for the chapter. That's a new record for a Chapter Royalty Team Contestant fundraiser. Well done, Gloria!
