BASOC's Report to the Community
Thank you for your ongoing support and membership in BASOC. With your help, we will continue to seek national and international sporting events. BASOC continues to be the "go-to" resource for all Olympic related events and programs in the San Francisco Bay Area. As one of the Founding USOC Community Partners, BASOC instills in our youngsters the life lessons learned in sport and competition - teamwork, self-respect, mutual respect, fair play, discipline and goal setting.
In our 23rd year of existence, we renew our dedication to promoting a better and more peaceful world through sport. To quote the Olympic Charter, "Olympism is a philosophy of life, exalting and combining in a whole balance the qualities of body, will and mind. Blending sport with culture and education, Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles."
BASOC is run entirely by volunteers. We welcome new members who love the Olympic Games, sports and the Bay Area. A membership form is available on the web site. In October of 2009, the IOC definitively rejected the excellent bid from Chicago 2016. While it is too soon to tell when the USOC may mount another bid for a future Olympic Games, BASOC is committed to helping the Northern California Olympians and the USOC to promote Olympic ideas and values in our communities and to reach out to friends around the world to help to strengthen relationships in the IOC family.
