Patrick Thonomal, Corine Musy, Yves Pointet and François Arsene.
There were 150 people in attendance at the fifth anniversary celebrations of the youngest of the
five supporters clubs in Switzerland with Comissió de Penyes members Patrick Thonomal and François
Arsene representing the Club.
The club’s social work has played an important role in the life of the penya, presided
by Yves Pointet and there was a raffle during the gala dinner to support the Swiss charity
“Les Pinceaux Maquiques” (the magic brushes), which works to improve the lives of ill
children through painting and creative activities. Corine Musy, the secretary of the charity
received the cheque from the proceedings.
Foreign supporters clubs’ activities continue to grow and they are becoming ever more
lively and visible. Despite the distance that separates them from Catalonia, the Barcelona feeling
seems to be growing all over the world.
