A note about membership:

Our Membership Goal is at least 100 members; with at least 10% or ten (10) members purchasing the Gold card.  We welcome new members to join the BDC, and thank the renewing members for your continued support. 

To sum it all up, the BDC is a Social Network – A combined evening of friends, music, dance & snacks make the experience fun and memorable.  Join and share in the experience! 

…As in any business or non-profit organization, a foundation budget is needed to help execute the programs and benefits that can be offered.  This is where our Membership Drive is crucial to our financial success.  As some may see it as a plea for money, we see it as your pledge for our financial planning.  Even though our sole survival is not by membership dues alone, it does help us plan some of the basics we have become accustomed to like bands or even our liability insurance.  In addition to Membership, attendance is the second most crucial key to our success.  We have seen an economic hit in our club’s attendance, as has other dance venues around the Valley.  We are hoping some of the benefits we are offering in this upcoming Membership Drive will be enough to encourage you to once again believe in us and help our vision stay intact, and hopefully we all survive these times together.

                Your Membership can also save you money as well as help the BDC and its financial planning.  By becoming a Member during the drive; your dues will be $25 for the BDC fiscal year; your dance admission is $7, which saves you about $2 per dance when you total up the costs & dues; your Membership will give you one (1) free dance entry at our Member Appreciation dance; and your Membership will give you one (1) entry coupon for a friend. 

            As an added benefit to both you and the BDC, we again offer the Gold Card.  The Gold Card’s most valuable benefit is convenience, as well as giving you 19 dance admissions for the price of 17.  Convenience is that you show your card at the door and never have to worry about carrying cash.  You receive all the Member benefits plus an extra dance admission.  The BDC is also able to add the advance door admissions to the financial planning.  It takes six (6) Gold cards sold to pay our Liability Insurance for the year, and also takes about eight (8) Gold Cards to pay for one Saturday’s dance overhead expenses…
