Hey B.A.D.,

First, as some of you have heard, Dad Varallo has resigned after 22 years of being an Advisor and 33 years of service to DeMolay. Bay Area Division will miss him, and we would like to thank him for all the youth he has helped and everything he has done for DeMolay. Thank you Dad V, we will miss you greatly.

Dad Angel Alvarez-Mapp will taking over the duties as Divisional Advisor. For those of you that don't know him, he is a Mom A's older son, and Josh's brother. He is a great guy and will do a great job.

B.A.D. is selling "Got DeMolay?" t-shirts for $10 each. $5 of each shirt will go to the NCDA Philanthropic Society. The shirts are black with white writing and currently we have adult sizes M - XXL. We have had requests for smaller and larger sizes so we will reorder. We are also ordering long sleeve t-shirts at $15 each and Sweatshirts for $22 each, must be pre-sale only. We will have sizes S-XXL for the prices listed and if you wish to order XXXL please add $3 per item. All items are black with white writing.

Convention 2009 is just about a month away! We hope everyone in Bay Area can come and support our Division! Please remember to wear lots of black and blue, and if you need something in black, we can help you out, just look at the previous paragraph.
