Board Update – January 28, 2024

Dear Indianapolis Bridge Center (IBC) Members,
 
I am pleased to report that our Finance committee, headed by Treasurer Nick Curott, has completed the Financial report for IBC for the 2024 year.
 
It is with great pleasure that I can announce that our year concluded with expenses and income within 00.15 % (fifteen-one hundredths of one percent) of each other, which is basically a balanced report.
 
Here is a link to that report, which will also be posted on our bulletin Board:
 
Much credit for such good news goes to Sharon and her Management team, who constantly watch expenses and encourage increased game play, while always striving to meet the needs and desires of membership.
 
Credit also goes to both Pam Rhine and the late Jim Rowen who, in 2019, put together a 5 year plan that gave us a concrete path forward with measurable goals that allowed us to monitor our budget on a monthly basis.
 
It is important to note that none of this is possible without YOU, our membership, who support IBC generously with both your time playing and your financial and social contributions.
 
Finally, although she will try to reflect any acknowledgement, none of this happens without our Immediate Past President Andie Marshall who so tirelessly shepherded our Board and Club through tumultuous financial times and put IBC on such a sturdy foundation.
 
Larry N. Cohen, IBC Board President
