The San Bartolomé City Council has made public the dates for the celebration of the commemorative events for the 50th anniversary of San Bartolomé CF, which will be from August 25 to 28.
On those dates, the municipality will be a recreational-sports epicenter with the celebration of an agenda of events that had already been advanced when it was announced that the Club would be the town crier of the San Bartolomé 2022 Festivities.
“As mayor, it is an honor to present these events in honor of San Bartolomé CF, but more important than these events are the 50 years of sports and social history of the Club in the municipality, which is why the San Bartolomé City Council will unconditionally support any type of action that benefits the boys and girls of the municipality”, says Isidro Pérez.
The mayor explained that the Consistory wanted to participate in these events “by making the presidents of the Club's history the heralds of the patron saint festivities, as well as initiating the procedures to award them the Gold Medal of San Bartolomé for their great dedication to the young people of the municipality and their good work in sports and social matters.”. The mayor encouraged them to continue the line of work that they have marked throughout this trajectory that has led them to be "a benchmark in the municipality and in Lanzarote".
The main course of the celebrations will be a football tournament that will feature a luxury poster. In addition to the host team, Club Deportivo Tenerife B, Unión Deportiva Las Palmas B and Unión Deportiva Lanzarote will participate. The first semifinal will pit UD Lanzarote against San Bartolomé CF on Thursday 25 at 8:30 p.m., while the second semifinal will be played in the Canary derby between Las Palmas B and Tenerife B on Friday 26 at 8:30 p.m.. For August 27, the matches for third and fourth place and the grand final will be held.
The sports tournament will be accompanied by a set of recreational activities that will help give a festive touch to this important commemoration for the municipality. On Saturday the 27th, the Félix Rodríguez de la Fuente Park will host the celebration of a game-dinner organized by San Bartolomé CF. On Sunday the 28th, in the same place, starting at 12:00 noon, there will be a gastronomic-musical day with the development of various performances, at the same time that tapas can be consumed that will make the entire neighborhood of San Bartolomé enjoy.
“San Bartolomé CF has been growing year after year until becoming a social benchmark for the municipality, thanks to the great work they do daily with the boys and girls of the municipality, which is why the City Council could not but collaborate in this important commemoration”, says the Councilor for Sports, Raúl de León.
San Bartolomé CF also wanted to thank "the involvement and help of the Consistory in the formation of the agenda of events for this celebration and, in general, whenever the club has needed its collaboration."
