Christmas Party

The BVAC Christmas party took place this year on Friday 15th December 2006 at The Amida Club, Beckenham. This was a new venue this year! A little chat, a little entertainment and a lot of food and wine! A terrific time was had by all and special awards were presented to:

  • Val Hassant and Pat Morton (something sparkling, bubbly and fresh)

  • Colin Poole (an editorial rest - hand variety)

  • Chris Marshall (a picture of a true runner - yes him!)

  • Barbara Pope (a frother - for the chef ... d'equipe of the womens successful T&F team)

  • Ann Leverett (a remote controller - for the men in her life or the life in her men!)

Phil was also presented with a can of Guinness (oh and a tankard from which to enjoy it!)

London Marathon 2007 Club Draw

The two free places which BVAC receives in the London Marathon were drawn out of a hat on Tuesday 19 December in accordance with the constitution among those members who satisfy the criteria for entry (see photos right). The places went to Jane Greenfield and Tony Unseld.

Bridgit Weekes - Most Improved Lady Runner - Kent Cross Country League 2006

We are very proud to report that Bridgit Weekes won the award for 'most improved lady runner' for the whole of the Kent Cross Country Fitness League for 2006 (for more information on the league, click here). There is a picture on the right of Bridgit receiving her trophy from one of the league representatives.

Travelling 'clubhouse'

We've purchased a club tent to take around to events. It comes in really handy to store baggage etc and you can 'park' it right near the start/finish, so there's no hanging around getting cold and wet while you wait for the start or your 'colleagues to finish!
