President’s Message
I would like to honor the passing of our club Founder Skip Riggs who passed away recently due to a prolonged illness, a battle well fought. I am disappointed I was unable to meet Skip, the man who was responsible for not only the origin and early development of BATOC but also instrumental in the creation of the national club CTCI. There are far more knowledgeable members than I, who can talk to who Skipp Riggs was and the legacy he leaves behind. Therefore, I will let Skip and the people who knew him well, tell his story. Read about his life and times in the articles below. My sincere condolences go out to his family, friends and club members he leaves behind.
Best Regards,
JOE
