In scenic, Danville, PA
We will be staying in the quaint, historic town of Danville, which lies along the Susquehanna River. Danville is nine miles west of Bloomsburg [university town & site of an LAB cycling rally in 2000], and 16 miles east of charming Lewisburg, home of Bucknell University. Between towns, we cycle along pastoral landscapes and lots of historic covered bridges. This picturesque region of Pennsylvania is well-known for its local cycling teams and annual rides. The terrain is mostly rolling, although steep hills can be found for the challenge-seekers! There are flat roads along both sides of the river.
Blue Bell Park - Sunday June 5th - Noon to 4:00 pm
BCP's annual memnbers' Summer Picnic will be held at the Blue Bell Park. Please join your fellow club-mates for a celebration of cycling, food, friendships, and camaraderie!

Volunteers Needed - BCP Needs Your Help
Board of Directors
BCP is looking for members who would like to serve on our Board of Directors, to help BCP at the decision-making and leadership level. The Board of Directors discusses the major issues which affect our club, and makes the administrative and policy decisions which guide our club forward as the largest cycling club in the Greater Philadelphia region. The Board meets once a month, for 10 meetings for year. BCP's Bylaws, which are available on the website, provide additional information on how the Board of Directors functions.
There are several other opportunities to help BCP. Remember BCP is an all volunteer organization. If you would like further information about any of the opportunities listed below, please contact any of BCPs Officers or Board members for additional details.
