BBCA Midsummer Celebration: A Grand Day Out!

1 Jul 2022 12:02 PM | Tim Reynolds (Administrator)

Our annual Midsummer celebration at the Royal Brussels Cricket Club near Lasne-Ohain took place on Saturday 25 June and was a great success. Thanks to the RBCC 'micro climate' we were fortunate to miss the worst of the Belgian summer weather and well over EUR 1 000 was raised for our charities.

The outdoor get-together was centred around a live cricket match between a team from SHAPE and the UK Embassy. Seasonal refreshments including a BBQ, tea and cake, and of course Tim’s Pimms, G&Ts and non-alcoholic cocktails were available all afternoon.  In addition, drinks were available from the club bar.

In addition a prize was held and traditional children’s games organised. In honour of the Platinum Jubilee this year a royal theme featured throughout the family-friendly event.

All proceeds from the event will go to BBCA constituent charities: the Community Help Service, the British Charitable Fund, the Brussels Branch of the Royal British Legion and The Wednesday Club.

Many thanks to professional photographer Damien Maguire of Image Digital for kind permission to use the photos below that perfectly capture the ambiance of the afternoon.
