Glen Ellyn, IL—The Bearing Specialists Association (BSA) is supporting US military families through a local charity in South Carolina called Operation Military Kids. It is part of the National Operation Military Kids initiative designated to provide support to the children and youth of families that are impacted by global contingency operations. This includes those served by Army installations, Air Force, Navy and Marine bases, National Guard and Reserves and those families, children and youth who are geographically dispersed.
BSA chose the South Carolina arm of this charity to mesh with its 2013 Annual Convention May 4-7 at the Westin Hilton Head Island Resort and Spa on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The association expects to raise $3,000 for this charity. To make the bearing industry contribution to Operation Military Kids more significant, the convention committee and Board of Directors are suggesting that each member company and participating manufacturer "match" BSA's contribution of $3,000. Any donation is welcome. The goal is for 100% of all companies, members and manufacturers, to contribute.
BSA has identified a number of ways for 2013 convention attendees to lend support. First, the convention committee will be selling Mulligans for this year’s golf tournament. Golfers will be able to purchase two Mulligans, or eight per team. The price per mulligan will be $10.00. On Tuesday, May 7th BSA spouse/companions will be assembling Hero Packs for distribution to military kids. Hero Packs are a way to give military kids a big thank you for all they do and recognize these kids as heroes too. They are stuffed with goodies along with a letter of thanks and then given to military youth before a loved one is deployed.
The goals of HERO Packs are to provide fun items for children of deployed servicemen/women, and provide items to help those children communicate with that deployed parent. We invite you to take part in this event. A $20.00 donation is recommended to cover the costs of supplies for the backpacks. BSA will also be skipping centerpieces at Monday night’s reception and donating that money to Operation Military Kids.
BSA is especially proud to be supporting an effort that in turn supports US troops and their families. The association’s Educational Services Committee is working on plans to make association training materials available to Navy recruits via a training program.
BSA is the “must belong to organization for authorized bearing distributors.” An international service and educational organization of distributors representing a total of almost 100 companies distributing factory-warranted, anti-friction bearings and invited manufacturers of bearings and related products, the association’s mission says, “BSA is the forum to enhance networking and knowledge sharing and promote the sale of bearings through authorized distributors.” To learn more about the 2013 Annual Convention, please go to www.bsaconventions.org.
