🏢 About the local organisation

For the fourth time the small community of Burk invites an international workcamp! Last camps were a big success and so the community is happy to repeat the international experience. During the camp, on the 30th of April & 1st of May, the international hiking days are taking place in Burk and the Workcamp will help in this event.

💼 What the programme involves

The group will have different tasks to do: You will help in the organisation of the international hiking day’s event, in which about 2000 hikers will participate. For the first of May you will prepare and install the maypole (Maibaum) and participate in the maypole celebration, which is a popular tradition, particularly in southern Germany. Furthermore, you will do various renovation and maintenance work on the local cemetery, playgrounds and green areas around the community.
