It has come to my attention that the 2012 CIRCLE OF FRIENDS fundraising drive for the BQR is falling short by about $3
,00
0 year-to-date as compared to last year . Considering that we’ve vastly improved the BQR by moving to a FULL COLOR FORMAT, we would expect to be that much more ahead! We’ve received tons of heartwarming emails and notes from those of you who LOVE the new color editions of the BQR. GCRG wants to be able to continue to produce the BQR at this high quality level, so we really need the support of ALL of our members to make this happen. That means YOU!
So if you have not done so already, please consider contributing to the Circle of Friends fundraising drive TODAY! Thanks a million to all of you who have already donated — your support means the world to us.
Don’t worry if you lost your Circle of Friends letter we sent you in early May. You can contribute ANYTIME! Just put “Circle of Friends” in the memo portion of the check. The contribution levels are:
Friend $1 – $99
Sponsor $100 – $499
Protector $500 – $999
Steward $ 1,000 – $2,499
Advocate $2,500 – $4,999
Philanthropist $5000 or more
The BQR Circle of Friends makes you a direct contributor to the outstanding quality of our publication and our ability to
foster stewardship and advocacy for the Colorado River experience you love. Large or small, we appreciate any and all contributions and they make a BIGdifference! Thanks for your support!

GCRGA and the BQR

The one that is always scanned before I leave the post office and read as soon as I get back is the Boatman’s

Quarterly Review. The BQR is the quarterly publication of the Grand Canyon River Guides Association. I work in the Grand Canyon as a boatman every once in a while and it’s never enough time in the canyon. However my reasons for loving the BQR are the publication itself. It is filled with articles about the history, flora, fauna, geology and people of the Grand Canyon. Most importantly each article is filled with passion for the Grand Canyon. It is extremely well written and brings to life that beautiful part of the world in my home in Colorado that is a thousand miles away.
If you are a lover of the Grand Canyon, have hiked it or rowed it I strongly urge you to join the Grand Canyon River Guides Association. The GCRGA is working hard to preserve the canyon. The association will, if you want, keep you up to date on what is going on both at the bottom of the canyon and the top of the bureaucracy. The GCRGA is a great organization that is full of passionate, hard working people that I am proud to be allowed to associate with.
If you don’t know anything about the Grand Canyon but each quarter want a publication that will leave you breathless and wondering why you have not gotten there or back there, become a member of the GCRGA. You don’t have to be a river guide, only a lover of great writing and/or the Grand Canyon.
Membership is $30 a year or you can get a lifetime membership for $277. (As they say, one dollar for every mile the river flows.)
You should also go, see, and experience the Grand Canyon.
