Click here for Facebook Event Page
It’s that time of year again! The BDSL Annual General Meeting (AGM) and Prize ceremony. Where all the racers from the year get together to celebrate another banging year, crown our victors and party!
The eventΒ will beΒ inΒ Bristol for the second year in a row as the wonderful people at Roll for the Soul have given us exclusive access again! Food should be available as well as a fully stocked bar.
Split into two parts;
AGM – The actual meeting part of the BDSLs year, talking about planned events for 2018, any committee members that want to step down, voting on new members, rule changes, things to work on for 2018 & any other business. This part is rather dry and takes place before the prize ceremony should anyone want to come along. Time to be confirmed.
Prize Ceremony – The fun part of the evening, where we all party. Time to be confirmed.
The event’s a little earlier this year so as not to clash withΒ Skate To Escape’s Double TroubleΒ should mean it’s a little warmer and easier to roll into the bars inΒ Bristol
Also an opportunityΒ to shoot the breeze with this year’s sponsors & event organisers! Big thanks as everΒ to:
Brianne CollectiveΒ for putting on brilliant events,Β BLBBΒ for stepping up and runningΒ BLBB Presents: Bolsterstone Outlaw 2017Β &Β BanditosΒ for Bopeep.
