Take us back to the sea

28/05/2024

This past weekend, our team gathered to celebrate Whitemilk’s 30th anniversary with an unforgettable retreat by the sea. We spent the day outdoors, enjoying cycling and hiking through the stunning landscapes of the Zwin Nature Park, and even paddling in handmade boats in the North Sea.

The day was capped off with a special barbecue at the unique Clubhouse Alberta in Zeebrugge.

However, the evening held an extra special surprise…

The warmest goodbye

We dedicated the night to honour Jo, who recently retired. Jo has always been a key personality in our company, a true beacon for us all. Though he preferred a low-key celebration, choosing to integrate his retirement into our anniversary event, we couldn't let this important moment pass without making it special.

In a heartfelt surprise, we secretly invited Jo’s wife, Sabine, the love of his life, to join us. We also organised the to contribute to a bucket list gift, and topped it off with some very personal messages. A memorable tribute to someone who means so much to us.

After dinner, we headed back to the hotel by bus, ready for a (very) short night’s sleep, but filled with the joy and camaraderie of a day well spent.
