BFSC Fundraiser - March 13 at Chipotle
BFSC has organized a fundraiser on Monday, March 13, 4-8 p.m., at the Chipotle at 7711 Harford Road. Located less than 10 minutes from Mt. Pleasant, it is a convenient stop before or after club ice. 33% of our purchases will be donated to BFSC; in order to receive credit, either present this flyer (if ordering on site) or use code 43VMZFC (if ordering online).

Amazon has discontinued its Amazon Smile program, effective February 20. We thank everyone who made purchases through the program to benefit BFSC and we will continue to explore new fundraising opportunities.

We continue to welcome donations through Venmo or check. BFSC is a 501(c)(3) organization and your tax-deductible contributions enable us to provide ice time, test sessions and other activities. For more information, contact info@baltimorefigureskatingclub.com
