Camp Endeavor, BCA October Charity Spotlight #Create #Inspire #Challenge #Change

We look forward to welcoming our October Charity Spotlight guests from Camp Endeavor. The mission of Camp Endeavor is to provide elementary school aged students with a hands-on, holistic, educational experience with a strong focus on integrating science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) with the literacy.

The organization provides students with opportunities to participate in field learning experiences, allowing them an interactive framework to “touch, see, and think” about the world around them. Students participate in hands-on activities that encourage them to explore STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) through reading and nature. Ultimately empowering them to explore and gain an enthusiasm for STEM that will contribute to their learning environment. Thanks to a recommendation from Mark Lawson of Premier Pharmacy Network, who sits on the Board of Advisors, we’re #BCAProud to see Camp Endeavor at our October events!

You’ve Never Seen Anything Like David Garibaldi; BCA Breakfast In The Evening #BCAProud @GaribaldiArts

BCA is very excited to announce David Garibaldi as our November 19th, Breakfast In The Evening guest speaker. David is more than a speaker, he is a performing and visual artist who tells his story of transformation through dance, painting and monologue.

Artists transform an empty canvas into a work of art through their skill, experience, inspiration and senses.  David Garibaldi’s life and transition into a world-renowned performance painter is no different. The culture and color of graffiti art served as an early inspiration for Garibaldi. Born in Los Angles, he later moved as a youth to South Sacramento. It was here that he learned to enjoy the use of his hands and body through art on “larger and somewhat illegal canvases” by painting graffiti as an angst teen. Graffiti artist and high school dropout, he was living day-by-day. The only constants in his life were music and art.

What a Great Season of Mystery Golf! Thank you @JawsGolf #BCAProud

A Big thank you goes out to Blue Heron Pines, Downingtown Country Club, Riverwinds, Running Deer and Valleybrook for being amazing hosts and BCA members! We also want to thank our amazing BCA participants who got out of their comfort zones by arriving for their tee time to meet a surprise foursome.

BCA facilitates Mystery Golf and Mystery Golf Lessons in order to create an environment in which our members can get out of the office in the beautiful summer months. They are also sharing in an activity they enjoy, and most importantly, Building Relationships! In the light of the BCA Team Shared Activities Challenge, we thought we would highlight all the fun BCA Mystery Golf sessions that took place this summer. Please contact Mary Pat with any questions, marypat@bcaphiladelphia.com.
