Connie Counter

Member of the Board of Directors

I became a member of BCA after moving from northwestern Wisconsin to Green Valley at the end of 2017. After retiring from a secretarial career in both the corporate and governmental sectors, I developed an interest in alternative and complementary healing modalities and became a certified Healing Touch practitioner. My first introduction to BCA was a cross-border day trip to Nogales, Sonora. Since then, I’ve enjoyed the wide variety of opportunities BCA provides — from trips and tours, to Let’s Speak Spanish classes, to engaging speaker programs and social gatherings — all of which have enriched my experience of discovering the rich cultural heritage of my new home in the southern Borderlands. I’m excited to serve as a member of the BCA Board and look forward to engaging in opportunities that promote the mission and goals of this wonderful organization.
