    Happy New Year!

    Happy New Year everyone.   While the San Diego Chargers did not make the playoffs this season we did have a great time at all the Luncheons and Dinners during the  2011 season.   To view some of the events that we had in 2011 Click Here!

    The Backers Board of Directors will now start planning for 2012.  It is important that you renew your membership or join the club today (if you are new).  We will be planning a number of “off-season”events so you don’t want to miss out!
