🏢 About the local organisation
The community of Lauchringen is going to host an international workcamp for the second time. The project will take place in cooperation with the “Familienzentrum” (family centre), an organisation that offers various programs for people of all ages to meet, exchange and educate themselves. In 2018, they built an “Adventure Land”: A big house with sleeping facilities, a kitchen, sanitary facilities, a workshop space and a big common room. This place is going to host groups during school holidays and offer an afternoon program for children and youngsters.
💼 What the programme involves
The building itself is already finished; however, there’s still work to do in the surrounding garden area. Your main task will be the renovation of an old construction trailer: On the outside, you will add timber cladding and set up a terrace. Inside, a new floor is needed, and the walls need to be covered. Also, you will set up a ramp that allows people in wheelchairs to access the construction trailer. Once it is finished, it will be used by children to play in, and occasionally as a small “backstage area” for bands that perform in the “Adventure Land”.
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will be accommodated in the “Adventure Land” itself: There are two big rooms with sleeping mats, a kitchen, and sanitary facilities – everything you need. Have a look at pictures of the new building and area here: http://faz-hochrhein.de/abenteuerland/category/blog/
