Flag in Lechbruck, Germany (IBG)

By the time the flag reached us we have already spent one week in the small village Lechbruck am See in Bavaria.
So...who is we?
We were seven volunteer girls from around the world enjoying a lot of weeding and planting for this community.
An invitation of the local brass band seemed to be the perfect opportunity to introduce the Alliance-Flag-Tour and to share the idea of volunteering. We had a great party together with intercultural exchange, a lot of good food and great fun. We met so many kind people during our stay and we were really impressed about all the voluntary work people here are involved in !!!

Flagparty in Ilsfeld, Germany

On Thuesday, 28th of April we had a great BBQ-party in Ilsfeld, Germany (hosted by IBG Germany). Almost 50 persons came: the 12 volunteers of our first IBG workcamp, a few members of the DLRG (German life saving association; one of the project partners, who hosted us in their base) and the members of the tennis club (our second project partner) with their families. Even the press celebrated this event with us.

The reason for this party was not just our farewell after 3 weeks full of fun, hard work, sightseeing, friendship, intercultural learning and new experience for all of us. Another reason was the arrival of the Alliance Flag.

I think we did a great job and made voluntary work more popular and visible in this area. The local population was very interessted in this and i think we achieved a lot.

It was a pleasure for us and we wish all of you a great and successfull Alliance Flag event! Sabine Send, Clara Steinheber (Campleaders) and IBG Team



PS: Now the Flag is in Bavaria, Germany in the second IBG workcamp. This week they will send the Flag to Belgium.
