Our new website will help members to better plan, schedule, register and pay for 
WCBA sponsored events — and much more. 

A great deal of information about the WCBA can be found here, and we encourage 
you to explore the site. If you should get a little lost, all you need to do is click on the 
“HOME” tab on the top left screen and it will bring you back to the home page. 

Our goal is to improve our interaction with you and to provide our members with a 
means to better engage with the operations of the WCBA.
