Camp Village Bergheim 1 –TogeZer, KidZ & TeenZ (NRW)
Bergheim (D-50126), GERMANIA
Attività principali
You volunteer in a summer village for different (age) groups. Over 3 weeks of various activities await you while you assist in a summer camp for children, teenagers and young families near Cologne. The summer village officially opens on July 19. Prior to that, the local team has already built up the infrastructure of the area. Tents, sanitary facilities, and common areas are mostly set up on your arrival the day before the official opening. You might be asked to lend a hand in the very final stages of preparation. Your job then will be to work together with the local team and provide different types of activities and workshops for the participants. The children should be able to try out different types of sport, creative (group) activities, do arts and crafting or simply chill or play games.
In the first week (TogeZer, July 20 - 24) the participants are children and young people with or without mental disabilities. The young people might be older (up to 18), but the developmental age is up to 12. For this week the team is also supported by professionals from an NGO working with people with disabilities and integration assistants.
In the second week the program caters for children aged 7 to 12 (KidZ, July 26 - 31)
The third week program is offered for teenagers (TeenZ, August 01 - 07)
Aside from helping with the program, there will also be “backstage” tasks, such as taking shifts at the "bar" or cleaning the sanitary facilities. Another responsibility is the night duty: Since the participants are under-age, someone always needs to stay awake. Don’t worry, you won’t need to stay up the whole night and you won’t need to do it alone. It can easily turn into a nice long campfire-evening with friends. It is very important to the local team that you feel and become part of one big group of teamers.

Dove alloggerai
You will sleep in big group tents on the camp village site. Camp mats will be provided, but please bring your own sleeping bag! There are showers and sanitary facilities available, but the accommodation itself is quite basic. There is no need for cooking since you will be eating together with the local team and the participants, so everything will be provided, but of course it is expected that you may help with cleaning and so on. You can get a glimpse of the project area on the homepage of the association, where you can find pictures from the previous years: https://www.woanders.org/fotos/
Scopri Bergheim (D-50126)
The camp village is situated on a meadow surrounded by trees a bit outside of the town of Bergheim. In Bergheim, you can find different shops and cafés, and Bergheim itself is only 20km away from Cologne. On your days off you can therefore visit Cologne, which is the fourth most populous city of Germany, famous for its cathedral and the Roman-Germanic museum. You can also go on trips to other nearby towns, for example to Bonn.
