| Over the last few weeks, BMA has been featured in the local and national media. "Chicago's very own", WGN TV and their "Cruisin' Illinois" segment gave us some national exposure with a bit on their June 11 segment. You can ckeck it out at WGNTV.com.

Terry captured the essence of what we do in her article and Derik shot some video and a fine array of photos of our night circumnavigating Maple Island. You can check out their flattering piece at BND.com. |
