Join us for a special program at the Conservatory of Flowers in San Francisco.

They will discuss the history of the BACPS including a Q&A session. Speakers on the panel will include: Joe Mazrimas, Larry Logoteta, Peter D'Amato, Chuck Powell, and Carl Wong. This meeting is not to be missed!

The BACPS library is looking for more books! If you are looking to free up some shelf space why not share your gently used books with your fellow club members.
If you would like to borrow any of these books or if you are looking for a specific volume of the CPN send your requests to BACPS Librarian.
Happy reading!
