A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT

Hourglass-3

BRAAS Brothers,

Welcome to year 43 of the Baton Rouge Ancient Athletes Society (BRAAS).

It is quite surreal and humbling to serve as your 43rd President of this awesome club.

For year 43 we welcome 16 new members which brings our total to 385 members.  For those incoming members (rookies) I’m anxious for you to jump in feet first and participate in as many sports and social events as you can.   You will hear this phrase many times from those who know…YOU WILL ONLY GET OUT OF THIS CLUB WHAT YOU PUT INTO IT.  Although not delineated in this letter there are a few important rules but, you will be informed of them along with lots more information during your rookie orientation on August 17th, 2023.

ABOUT BRAASTRONG

Hourglass-3

THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THIS ORGANIZATION IS TO PROVIDE A VEHICLE TO RAISE FUNDS FOR ANY BRAAS MEMBER THAT MAY FACE A SERIOUS HARDSHIP OR TRAGEDY IN THEIR LIVES, OUR “BROTHERS IN NEED”.

BRAAStrong was founded to help alleviate some of that financial burden when possible.

While any contribution BRAAStrong can give may only make a small dent and it does not in any way take away the pain of the situation, it hopefully provides some small piece of relief.
