🏢 About the local organisation
The Municipality of Clérieux wishes to redevelop and enhance an important place of life for the municipality: the municipal park. An intergenerational meeting place, it provides the population of all ages with a fitness trail, children’s games and a skate park. This year, the municipality wishes to call upon a youth work camp to finalize the development and consolidation of this space.
💼 What the programme involves
On this project, you will first create a Japanese step pathway linking the parking lot to the center of the park, then you will participate in the renovation of wooden benches (sanding and painting). You will also have to build, with recycled materials, and install a beehive and an insect hotel in the park. Finally, the flowering of the plot will complete the development of this part of the park. You will also be asked to do some masonry work to consolidate the damaged parts of the skate park.
This work will be carried out alongside the inhabitants of the commune with whom you will be able to exchange. During the realization of the work, you will be supervised by an agent of the technical service and elected officials. Local young people will be present during the free time and the common activities. They will be delighted to help you discover their town and region.
🏠 Accommodation on site
You will be accommodated in tents on the city’s stadium grounds. You will be able to use the sanitary facilities and the locker rooms of the gymnasium. The kitchen will also be at your disposal. Each volunteer will be asked to take an active part in the collective life of the group: preparation of meals, cleaning of dishes, cleaning of toilets and premises.
Your accommodation is located 10 minutes walk from the site.
