Meet 'BASS Member, Catherine "Cat" Doerfler
My name is Catherine Doerfler and I just moved here (July 2009) to the South Bend area and was looking for some fun people to meet and hang out with. When I came across BASS and met the people that are involved, I immediatly got involved with so much and I have truly enjoyed getting to know new people while having fun and helping the community! One of the many events that I volunteered for was the Kicks for Kids Kickball Tournament that will be held on June 12, 2010! I am this year's chair of thie event and I am really looking forward to seeing everyone out there! If you are interested in learning more about the Tournament, want to play or just volunteer, please contact myself or any executive member! Can't wait to see everyone there!!
