FERNDALE YMCA
BPC has loaned two portable nets to the Ferndale YMCA for use on-site, on an ongoing basis. They will be labeled “BPC/ YMCA” & stored in the “garage” there. If you don’t know how to assemble or disassemble, please ask for guidance from someone who does. We have given the Ferndale Y a list of who is authorized to check the nets out if BPC needs to use them at another venue.
