@parkstreet – I think you’re making this way too complicated!

The easiest way is to copy over the /blogs/blogs-loop.php to your child theme and use the template tag: bp_blog_description() somewhere in the loop.

There’s an action to hook into in the bp-default template, but the hook is after the last activity block, which is probably not where you want the blog description to show up.
