Boulder Badminton Club is 10 yrs old!

When we first moved to Colorado, we didn't have a local place to play badminton. About 8 of us got together and formed Boulder Badminton Club. We went through many venues and finally landed up at City Park Rec Center as our home to Boulder Badminton Club. We went from 8 players to about 40 players per night(on a good night) and even got featured in the newspaper once!!

When we left for the Philippines, Steffen took over the club and grew it even more and everything was super organized.

This week we were proud to celebrate our club's 10 year anniversary. I can't believe that it's lasted this long and we're still there! With Steffen's systematic membership payment plans we were able to throw a rather posh party for about 65 people and even gave out awards and raffles!!

We were very pleased with the turn out of the event and even had some original players showed up and it was good to see old players again! Everybody seemed to have enjoyed the night and left with good spirits!

And of course crafts and tv to entertain the kids in the Kids Corner!
