BACCF Webinars
The BACCF webinars are a great interactive tool with the ability to accommodate large numbers of participants. During the “new normal”, the BACCF Committees are hosting weekly events covering up-to-date topics.
The Beans - BACCF Annual Feijoada
The "Feijoada" is one of the most important annual events organized by the Chamber, where we welcome in the new Board of Directors for the upcoming year and thank our members for their continued support. An informal luncheon held on the last Saturday of January, BACCF members and friends gather together to celebrate. “Feijoada” is considered by some as Brazil’s national dish - a stew of beans with a variety of beef and pork cuts. It is typically served with rice and accompanied by chopped fried collard greens, lightly roasted coarse cassava flour, and peeled and sliced oranges. “Caipirinhas” and other typical beverages make it a perfect occasion to treat employees, friends and clients alike.
BACCF Tennis Tournament
The BACCF Tennis Tournament was created to bring the Chamber athletes, friends and family members together for a weekend of great fun and networking filled with games, snacks and good camaraderie. On Sunday, a reception follows the fun-filled Awards ceremony. The BACCF Tennis Tournament is held at one of the best facilities in South Florida; the exclusive Ocean Club in Key Biscayne.
