On January 29th our clubmembers visited the exhibition “Paul Delvaux and His Universe” at the museum " La Boverie" in Liège.


What a great afternoon for the art lovers of our club! The exhibition “Paul Delvaux and His Universe” at "La Boverie" in Liège offered a fascinating overview of the works of the Belgian surrealist Paul Delvaux (1897-1994). The exhibition featured masterpieces that have not been seen for years or that have been brought together for the first time. To the members of the F.F. Limburg who were absent for this activity, once again, you missed out on an incredible experience!

Incoming exchange F.F. Toulouse and F.F. Biarritz, France from April 28th
till  May 05th.
 

We think it was really a very successful exchange.
Agreeable guests who appreciated the activities and excursions. Together we visited the agricultural  region of Hesbaye known for its delicious fruit, apples , pears, strawberries ... and also with a  lot of cultural and architectural  highlights. Further a walk in the Belgian Ardennes and a visit of Maastricht, Aachen and Tongres.  It all ended with a great farewell party.

Incoming exchange F.F. Cheyenne, USA  from August 15th until August 22nd 2025.
 

The F.F. Limburg welcomed 6 American ambassadors from Cheyenne, Wyoming. Our guests arrived in Brussels after a long and tiring journey. At the airport, they met their Limburg host families who were waiting for them. The following days they were treated to various interesting activities in different Limburg cities and historical Belgian places like Bruges, Alden Biezen, the fruit centre in Borgloon, antique market in Tongres ... and much, much more. The official welcome took place in the town hall of the city of Diepenbeek. And last, but not least they discovered the Belgian beers  in a local pub.

The Friendship Force of Limburg general meeting on Sunday December 07th 2025.

 

The general meeting started with a visit of the ZLDR air-factory in the city of Heusden - Zolder. After a very good explanation of the guide and an interesting tour, we gathered in the restaurant "Lavandi". An excellent lunch, a good glass of wine and a fine atmosphere. Under the guidance of our club president we had a look at the past year and then went over the coming activities of 2026. Everybody really enjoyed this lovely afternoon.
