The first time ever Back Country Horsemen of America broadcast live the National Board Meeting along with Announcing the “Keep Trails Open For You” Campaign was a resounding success. If you missed the April 23rd through 26th live broadcast or would like to review parts again, it is available on line to view anytime.

On Line Attendees Experience was Interactive – Almost Like Being There!
On line attendees were able to experience the BCHA National Board Meeting Live from their homes for the first time and were able to ask questions real time and offer immediate feedback during the live event.
The audio visual crew was outstanding in keeping the live feed up and the interaction with on line attendees going, some reported it was almost like being there!
It was wonderful being able to watch the meeting when we couldn’t attend. I think that is so valuable as an educational tool as well for members who have never attended –
Betty Applebaker – HDTR BCHO.
A special thanks to the audio visual crew and our BCHA Chairman for making this live streaming event possible.
