The community of Ilsfeld have big plans for improving the leisure activities for their young and older inhabitants. The community tennis club will be very happy for the support of their big task of renovating the surrounding area of the public swimming pool and making it a more exciting place to stay during summer.
Work: Working tasks will be setting a boule court (French game with bowls), pave a path on the area of the tennis club/swimming pool and help with setting up a small fountain. There will be other renovation tasks throughout the two weeks including fixing the fence etc that the volunteers will have to do but these tasks have yet to be planned. Due to snow in Germany the renovation hasn´t come as far as the responsible persons have wished. Helping hands are very much appreciated! The opening is supposed to be in May.

Work: The community has many ideas how to insure that the “family-friendly” trail could be interesting for children, their parents and all nature lovers. There are many tasks waiting for you - firstly the trail needs to be created and a rope bridge constructed for the playground. Also volunteers will be helping to renovate a small fountain integrated into the surrounding landscape and at the end of the trail to set up a barbecue place.
