BHAA Update
Dues Unpaid, Not a Member? Become Active in BHAA
The number of BHAA’s members is a strong metric of support for the Association and its effort to “restore the Bowles Hall experience, in a restored Bowles Hall.” Annual dues for regular members continue at the modest rate of $25.00 per year to encourage broad participation and lifetime membership for $200.00 was implemented last fall.
The Association membership is now nearly 600, with 22 new members joined by the end of December 2010, and includes representation from all the classes from 1934 through 2014. As well, 45 of the current members have opted for lifetime membership! Of the current active members, some 70 are directly involved in various aspects of the ongoing restoration project for the Hall – fund raising; identifying and obtaining memorabilia; membership recruitment; negotiating with UC Berkeley and outside agencies; study, review, and development of architectural and renovation plans and specifications; and the myriad other activities involved with “rebuilding” Bowles Hall and establishing it as a residential college.
Those who have not yet renewed their 2010 – 2011 membership or have allowed membership to lapse are encouraged to pay their annual dues or, as an alternative, sign up for the lifetime membership. An enrollment form, which may also be used to pay dues, including those for a lifetime membership, is available here on the web site, access to which may be obtained by clicking on the link below. New members joining now will have their first-year membership “year” extended through June 30, 2012.
