OtherFiscal Year 2019 was very unusual for BBC, because of exceptionally high revenues. These included substantial funds raised for the $100,000 minimum corpus for two endowments for Big Bend National Park. One is the "Trails Endowment" and the other the "Fossil Exhibit Endowment". Also, during the year, BBC received generous bequests, which had not been anticipated. BBC moved some of these funds into endowment programs and established a board-designated operating reserve fund. None of these funds were immediately expensed for program purposes, but BBC anticipates the long-term benefits will be substantial for support of its mission.
