Dear BOCC Members,
We all share a passion for the game of cricket and know that to have the best experience with the game, the field must be pristine. At the Annual General Meeting (AGM), we discussed our current financial situation and the increasing costs of operations. I am appealing to everyone at this time to contribute to the President’s fundraising drive this month to raise $3,500 (by end of March) to pay for a new engine for our existing lawn mower in advance of the season kickoff. This cost effective approach of installing a new engine now will allow for another 5-8 years of uninterrupted service. The condition of our wickets and the outfields are our greatest asset – playing at our field should continue to offer the best cricket experience in the entire North East.
Your generosity to the President’s Fund will be documented (in aggregation) for posterity on the website (https://bocccricket.com/default.aspx?Page=10 [bocccricket.com]) and on a physical board in the clubhouse (you may donate anonymously if you like). Donations can be made in the usual way via PayPal or Venmo as the preferred payment options. Venmo is best and can be made to @BOCCTreasurer, with a note explaining payment and preference of anonymity. If using PayPal send money using the “Send to Friends and Family” option to treasurer@bocccricket.com with a note explaining what it is for. Alternately you can send a check made out to 'BOCC' and sent to:
Chris Lawrence
Treasurer
British Officers' Cricket Club of Philadelphia
336 West Springfield Road
Springfield, PA 19064
So please join me in this critical fundraising drive and, I thank you in advance for your contribution. I look forward to gathering together at the curry dinner in March and kicking off our 2022 season!
Regards,
Amim
