Winter Fun Day
Immediate release: 20 December 2007
Almost 2,500 people banished the winter blues this weekend by taking part in the BGL Group's Winter Fun Day at the East of England Showground on Sunday.
The day combined fun and games with thoughts for the less fortunate. More than 200 Christmas presents were donated by BGL Group employees, their friends and their families to be given to disadvantaged local children over the festive period. In addition, leftover food and drinks were given to a local charity for the homeless, the Peterborough Soup Kitchen.
The Winter Fun Day was created by the BGL Group as a seasonal treat for its employees, their family members and friends. The day included carol singing, ice skating and an ice show, a company ‘It’s a Knockout’ competition and a live show from Peterborough dance studio Funky Feet.
Other attractions included Santa's Grotto, a rodeo-style bucking reindeer, huskie sleigh rides and market stalls selling traditional treats. Children also enjoyed face-painting and a bouncy castle.
Peter Winslow, chief executive of the BGL Group, said: "One of our company values is 'Just be Happy' – and that's what the Fun Day is all about. It's a get-together for colleagues, their family and their friends and an opportunity for the company to thank everyone for their hard work over the last year. The phenomenal growth and success we are seeing is all driven by our people's commitment. We never underestimate that and value it enormously."
