Read MoreA LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
Welcome to the 45th year of the Baton Rouge Ancient Athlete Society. I am both excited and humbled to be the 45th President of this club. There are some big shoes to fill over the last several years. The presidents and boards of the past can’t be thanked enough for growing and improving the club to what it is today. Together with my board, I intend to continue to move the club forward and leave it better than it was before.
I found out about the club in 2014 and was lucky enough to be selected into the 35th rookie class when I was 30 years old. I was excited to get to play different sports year-round, but I had no idea what I was really joining. Now ten years later, the sports are fun, but they are such a small part of what really makes this club great. If you are only showing up to play your games and then heading home, you are missing out on the opportunity to build many professional and social relationships with people you probably never would know otherwise. I encourage you to volunteer to help at social events or be a captain or a commissioner of a sport. You will get so much more out of the club if you are willing to put more in.
