2011 – YEAR IN REVIEW

2011 Year in Review

 

2011 was a good year for BTA.

 

A few highlights to remember…

 

At the long time request of our club regulars, BTA launched our very own private team… simply called the BTA-Team!

*

BTA continues to attract the largest attendance around! We see a variety of players from members, regulars, and a steady stream of newcomers to visiting teams and individuals looking for games when their own team is not scheduling!

*

BTA hosted/attended ops every… …single… …week of 2011!

Let us see if we can do it again in 2012!

*

BTA took it upon ourselves to legitimize the permission and legality of all twenty-seven of our current airsoft AOs (Areas Of Operation).

*

Furthermore, BTA found, legitimized, and introduced five brand new Utah airsofting AOs!

“The Tunnel”

 “The Mine”

 “CQB Canyon”

 “Rattler Canyon”

and

“Cyanide Canyon”

 

On a sad note, we all lost another longtime AO, the old BTA stand-by… “Foundation Hill”!

First, a scrap company retained rights to remove metal from the site, disrupting the terrain quite a bit. However, before landmarks like “The Tower” and “The Sea-Wall” could be torn down, officials stepped in and stopped them over state and federal “wet-lands” issues.

Just when it looked like “Foundation” would survive, multiple companies purchased different portions of the area and have begun construction of private businesses. According to the city, we would be too close to these businesses to be permitted to “play”.

 

Big thanks to the BTA Command and Support Teams as well as the BTA-Team, for all of their hard work and dedication!

 

Special thanks to all of you… the members, regulars, friends, visitors, and new faces!

 

You all make BTA the greatest airsoft club!

 

Sincerely,

BTA - Black Thorn Airsoft
