Leeds Luso Guineense Association

The family went to Park.

Leeds Luso Guinean Association, held on 27th June at Belle Isle Park one more activity, with the aim of promoting more approximation between community members.
Enjoying the good weather that was, we opted for outdoor activities, involving various groups age. The activities started with men's football game, followed by woman's football game who went into action with determination, surpassing all expectations, and children's also played and showed their many talents and fair play.
The activities were closed with a few races and games that have made the barbecue funnier.
The results of the matches weren't bothering. However, and I cannot fail to emphasize that at the end of the matches all came out as winners and gained the friendship.
By the middle of all this conviviality, there were plenty food and beverages, all enjoyed themselves broadly. However, the fraternity could not end without there being a musician of course, one of the main ingredients of all African gatherings. Otherwise it would compare to a good food without salt.
With a "siko" improvised, and everyone was clapping in the choir, singing and dancing to some of the most famous traditional music of Guinea (Mandjuandade).
It is noteworthy that also took part in some English families, which are some of the objectives of LLGA that is to assist in greater integration of our community into British society. The children's of different races shared moments of joy without looking at the differences as a barrier, but as a bond of unity. In the opinion of some families, these meetings may serve as a way to combat indifference, thus allowing to younger begin to understand that men do not judge by skin colour.
It moved like a wonderful afternoon in the opinion of the majority of those present.
