BTS Bay Area Conference Call

The current steering committee had a great conference call today and was happy to add Nancy Schultz to the committee. On the call was Larry Kane, Kevin Dunn, Tyrus Bookman, Patrick Diaz, Daniel McCune, Will Rodgers, and Nancy Schultz. This group will form the first Board of Directors for Beat the Streets Bay Area (Bay Area Wrestling, Inc.). BTS Bay Area has signed the Letter of Intent (LOI) with BTS National and is going to continue forward with the process of accreditation. This spring we will be operating the first program for our organization at Westlake Middle School in Oakland. More information to come, we will keep everyone informed on our progress through the website. The goal is to take our collective knowledge and positively impact lives through wrestling in the greater Bay Area.

Kevin Dunn, BTS Bay Area Steering Committee Member, has been supporting Castlemont Coach Marcus Leon with Castlemont Wrestling and their team captain Denzel Mabry. Coach Leon has a passion for wrestling and has worked tirelessly to provide opportunities for students in wrestling, like Denzel. Kevin was able to recently include Denzel on a trip to Sacramento to work out with Team Alpha Male and receive mentorship from athletes like Urijah Faber, Cody Garbrandt, and Olympian Quincey Clark.
