THE HISTORY
DESSERT
BSGAC MEMBERS ONLY
PRESENTED BY WENDELL MASON!
Do you feel like this community is a
special and unique slice of paradise?
That is the same feeling that Wendell and Joan Mason had when they
moved into the very first condo building being built in Burnt Store Marina
in 1978! In 1980 Wendell and
Joan purchased a unit at the Commodore Club as the very first building was
being built. Along the way they
witnessed many changes and have many stories to tell us about this great
community as it evolved and became our home today.
Wendell has many pictures which document the years of development
which he will be sharing with us.
Don’t miss this special evening and a chance to come together as a
community to learn many things about our community.
Register now at the Administration Office!

Give Your Club an Anniversary Gift
Contribute to the Flame Keepers Fund
Each year on our Anniversary the Hole Sponsorships come
up for renewal or first time sponsors. This timing allows us to get projects
done in the off season. We hope
all our past sponsors will renew and many new members will come forward to
sponsor a golf hole for $1,000 and have their name sign on a hole for one
year. Gifts of any denomination
to the Flame Keepers fund are always most welcome.
You may designate how your gift will be used or leave it to the Board
and management to decide. Gifts
may also be made in memorial.
All donors will be listed on the lobby displays.
The Engraved Brick program is another way you can give
to your Club. We are currently
holding an order for two bricks waiting for more orders. Please note that
our flag was getting tattered and it is being replaced for Memorial Day.
We expect that replacement will be necessary twice a year on Memorial
Day and Veterans Day.
Replacements come from our Engraved Brick program funds.
