BBCA SUMMER GARDEN PARTY SUNDAY 11 JULY
Please join the Brussels British Community Association for a celebration of summer at the Royal Brussels Cricket Club near Lasne-Ohain (see map here) on Sunday 11 July, from 13.00-18.00.
This long-awaited outdoor get-together around a live cricket match will be accompanied by seasonal refreshments and a raffle. Entrance is free and all proceeds 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.
Enjoy a BBQ with burgers, veggie burgers and sausages in baps, accompanied by salad and sauces (from 14.00), tea and cake (from 16.00) and not-to-be missed Tim’s Pimms, G&Ts and non-alcoholic cocktails served all afternoon. Tickets for food and refreshments can be purchased at the entrance (cash only) and drinks are also available from the club’s cash bar.
Please register via this link by 8 July (end of the day) so that we can ensure there is enough food and drinks for everyone and guarantee that the event respects current safety measures. In the event of heavy rain or extreme weather, organisers may cancel the event. All confirmed attendees will be notified by email. If you have any difficulties with registration or need more information, please contact us via BBCA.NewsAndEvents@gmail.com.
Providing an idyllic setting to the festivities is a ‘village cricket match’ The club captain is still signing up players, so If you’d like to join a team, please contact Nick Compton.
Although tables and chairs will be available, we suggest you bring along camping chairs and tables or picnic rugs to help us guarantee safe distancing and your comfort.
The BBCA and RBCC are looking forward to welcoming as many people as possible. We hope that you can join with us in making sure that this is an enjoyable, safe and (hopefully) sunny event for everyone.
*Covid-19 restrictions will be scrupulously respected according to current government guidelines. Please wear a mask in confined interior areas and when queuing for food and refreshments. Hand sanitizer gel will be available.
