Some of us can remember way back, when having 6000 members was a milestone, or more than 500 visits a day was cause for celebration. But BC has grown, thanks to its Members and to the way everyone participates in this friendly community with such good will.
Just think, a community of 250K is larger than a vast majority of cities in the world.
