Volunteer Weekend 2026: Enjoying Together!
On Saturday, March 14 and Sunday, March 15, 2026, we put our volunteers in the spotlight. We believe it's important to thank volunteers for their dedication. Therefore, we organized a weekend full of fun activities, relaxation, and conviviality. Volunteers are indispensable in our municipality; this weekend was a beautiful way to give something back.
Something Fun for Everyone
There was something fun for everyone to do. Volunteers could choose from various activities this year. There was a heavenly breakfast, a beautiful walk along the Meuse bank, and a tour of Kasteel Wolfrath. Participants could also join creative workshops, such as making a keychain, painting a tapas board, or baking pie at Ophovenerhof. Additionally, there were workshops like a chocolate workshop, a drum workshop, and a sound bowl session. Those who preferred something more active could participate in a pilates clinic.

Many participants indicated that it was nice to receive extra attention and appreciation. The atmosphere was warm and cozy, and beautiful memories were made.
The weekend not only provided space for relaxation but also brought volunteers from different organizations together. A great opportunity to share experiences and meet new people.
