Get out and walk…
Sunshine, Fresh Air, & Exercise are good for us!
We are offering 20 traditional walks in 2025, along with 17 year-round and seasonal walks so it should
be easy to earn this patch, which just requires 10
walks listed in our membership book. To earn the Scheel incentive/club vest you must walk 20 walks (10 different walks sponsored by BHVA.) For more details please refer to the Incentive Tab listed under the More drop down menu.
Membership Chair, Beth Hendricks also wanted me to remind those of you that haven't renewed your dues yet that now would be a great time to due so. I am attaching a link to our membership page here or you can go to the MORE tab at the top of this page and scroll down to the Club Info page to get to the membership form, or here is Beth's contact information: (605) 381-5176 [email protected]
Also under the Club Info page are the new guidelines and forms for BHVA Scholarship. Renew now to beat the 2025 deadline of March 31st.
We are trying something new with a slide show for photos - let us know if you like the format. If you have photos you would like to share from our traditional or seasonal walks please email them to [email protected]
