🏢 About the local organisation
This summer the community of Berglen welcomes its sixth group of international volunteers already! In the hills of south-western Germany the work camp team will help renovate and improve playgrounds in the Berglen area where local kids spend their afternoons.
💼 What the programme involves
You will help renovate and renew local playgrounds. Together with the “Bauhof” (builders’ yard) team you will mainly be working on the renovation, maintenance and construction of new playground equipment, e.g. building a new playing hut for the kids. Other tasks may also need the team’s creativity and handy-work.
🏠 Accommodation on site
The work camp group will be staying at the local youth club. In the club’s house you will have access to a kitchen and all necessary sanitary facilities. Please bring your own sleeping bag!
