The upcoming HCPPA-UK annual Gala Day on Saturday the 17th of July 2021 at Frimley lodge park, Camberley.
We have arranged several fun games including hiking, boat rides*, cricket, football, volleyball, sack race etc. for all ages. There will be plenty of famous Sri Lankan food such as kool and Kothhu with BBQ, and drinks available throughout the day.
Considering the current pandemic situation, we have combined the annual cricket match between the HCPPA-UK and the Jaffna Hindu college OBA – UK, the Battle of the Blues (BOB), along with the Gala Day. BOB will also be held at the same park and both BOB and Gala Day will be next to each other. We believe these combined activities would bring more fun, enjoyable, and memorable.
The Battle of the Blues will start at 10:00 AM and expected to finish by 3:00 PM. Those who wants to play for HCPPA-UK, please let us know your interest and details by 15th June 2021 so that we can form a winning team.
This year’s Gala Day will not only be a gathering but also a family day outing for everyone with more entertaining activities. Please come along with your families and friends and you will not be disappointed. We hope this is going to be a wonderful day out with lots of fun. We are looking forward to meeting you on the event.
