Description

After two successful volunteer projects in the past years, the Municipal Council of Singen again asks an international group to help with renovation and construction works on local playgrounds.

There are different tasks to be done such as painting parts of the playground tools, clearing the vegetation, leveling the ground, etc. The work will be supervised by professional workers who will explain everything and who are looking forward to get to know the international helpers.

Highlights

Singen is located in the very south of Germany, close to the border to Switzerland and the Lake Constance and offers many nice excursions and hiking tours. There is also a great amount of sportive and cultural possibilities (museums, theatres, etc).
