Summer festival in Meißen: A festival for the whole city!
Summer festival in Meißen: A festival for the whole city!
The annual summer festival took place in Meißen last weekend, which was organized by the city and the Meißen municipal utilities. The festival, which took place on the building yard site on Jaspisstrasse, attracted a variety of guests who were looking forward to a colorful program. Mayor Olaf Raschke warmly welcomed all visitors and reported, among other things, the current status of the number 14 tram, which is currently being restored in Dresden. Raschke emphasized the importance of the tram depot, which with exhibits of the "Initiative Saxon Railway History e.V." is equipped and announced that it was his last summer festival in the role of host.A highlight of the festival was the proceeds from the beverage sale, which benefits the association to support the traffic museum. Mayor Markus Renner also awarded the city of Meißen's honorary prize to five committed citizens who have emerged through their voluntary work. This underlines the importance of volunteering in the city, especially in times when flexible help is increasingly required as in disaster protection.
committed projects and creative stands
nine local clubs had the opportunity to bring in their ideas when the project voting of Meißener Stadtwerke. The winners who received 1500 euros each include:
- umbrella organization of the Hahnemannstätten e.V.
- rehabilitation, fitness and health sports club "Aktion Health Meißen"- new device training area
- SV Progress Meißen-West 1990 e.V.-playground for children
- "Zaschendorf - The village in the Stadt e.V." - Book cell, lying bench, historical photos
The offer at the festival was diverse: A stand of the Dresden algae plant was on offer, which was very well received by the guests. In addition, a visit to a new selfie point was announced, which will soon be built on the market with the colorful "Meissen" lettering.
another festival for the community
The value of volunteering cannot be assessed highly enough, especially with regard to the increased need due to climate -related extreme weather events. According to a recent study by the Federal Office for Population Protection and Disaster aid, over 1.76 million people in civil and disaster protection are active in Germany. The commitment rate here is about three percent of the population, which shows how important it is to win other people for voluntary work.
Overall, these festivities and initiatives not only offer an excellent opportunity to meet, but also strengthen the feeling of togetherness in Meißen. A big thank you goes to all organizers, supporters and volunteers who help to make such events possible.
