Men’s Club

Contact the BPBCA Men’s Club

The Black Point Men’s Club is a volunteer men’s group hoping to enhance the neighborhood feel within the Black Point Beach Club Association. Our events are structured to Build Community, Have Fun and Enjoy Black Point. Although we are a men’s organization, many of our events are open to all Black Point residents and their guests.

Being community based we try to give back to the community. In the past, funds have been used to build the bocce court and to purchase the large screen TV plus part of the sound system for the clubhouse.

Information on the BP Men’s Club activities is available through e-mail updates to our members. Please become an active member! Others can find information in the seasonal Black Pointer and the Black Point Men’s Club tab on the Black Point Beach Club website. Also see

 The Black Point Mens’ Club hopes that you enjoyed our programs this year.  Our GOALS are to Build Community, Have Fun and Enjoy Black Point. Activities are set-up to try to tap into the interests over a large spectrum of our beach community. We thank our members who organized these events and those who participated and enjoyed them. 

We keep costs low through the great efforts of our members, volunteering whenever they can! Then we pass that on to the BP community with low entry fees. We are now a year round organization that is starting to add more events with the Clubhouse open during the off-season.

The Black Point Mens’ Club does have a request of the men of our community. Please join us. It is only $30. We would like to expand by having members from a bigger percentage of our approximately 600 households. Help us make things happen on the Point. Drop off your dues with Al Capozza at any of our events.
