💼 What the programme involves
*** VERSION EN FRANCAIS DISPONIBLE EN FIN DE DESCRIPTION *** *** French version at the end of the description *** We invite you to take up an unusual challenge! What is it? To design and build a PUMP TRACK! Supervised by a technical leader, you will be able to participate in this creative work which will need you, your arms, your imagination but also your joyfulness!
BMX or mountain bike riding is not required. On the other hand, if you want to imagine and create a circuit with bumps, turns, springboards, this is the place for you! The work required will also be manual, to create this course for the young people of the village and the surrounding area.
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will sleep in individual tents (bring your own sleeping bag and camping mat) with a room provided by the commune for collective daily life. You will share the various collective tasks, in particular the preparation of meals. We will use healthy and local products. If you have special dietary requirements, please let us know before the workcamp.
📍 About the location
