It was hot and beautiful - the Engagierte Stadt hands-on day on 8 July 2023. This project took place for the third time - organized by the volunteer center, the Nordend and Senefelder neighbourhood management and the volunteer officer. Twelve projects were announced in which volunteers could participate for one day; due to the heat, two activities for senior citizens will be held at a later date.
The volunteers could be recognized by their white shirts with a colourful print: thank-you bags were packed and distributed at the volunteer center. They dug, planted, crafted and painted during beautification campaigns in Nordend, Mathildenviertel and Lauterborn. Almost 300 fireproof paper roses were collected at the Elmar Theater Club for the next Christmas fairy tale. In four groups, volunteers worked with the history workshop to polish stumbling blocks and some playgrounds were also cleared of litter. A market stroll with blind people from the Tandem Club gave the volunteers new impressions and the wagon on the banks of the Main was prepared for the anniversary activities. Two volunteers were also involved in the film team - the results will be published shortly. The grand finale was participation in the thank-you party at the Bogside Irish Pub in Domstrasse.
