25 members of the F.F. of Limburg and some guests enjoyed a Christmas concert before going to the restaurant for a meal. We were proud of  Edith and Etienne who participated as members of the choir. In the restaurant and under the guidance of our club president, we first went over the past exchanges and the coming activities of 2024. We ended this activity in a fine and relaxing atmosphere.
