BCJFRA is a member run organization that needs and welcomes participation from all of its members. In order for us to stay in operation and continue to keep our membership prices at a reasonable rate, we all need to put in some time to get the duties done. If we spread the work among many, the work will not break the few. Participation is essential for the BCJFRA to continue to offer open riding time and events throughout the year.
