Berlin Renovation Camp
Description: Projekt- und BegegnungsstEtte of the Association of Young Volunteers (Vereinigung Junger Freiwilliger e.V. (VJF))
Type of Work: During this camp we need to prepare our project centre and the accommodation for our longterm volunteers for the next workcamp season. Our main goal for the first week will be all about taking care of renovation tasks, like painting walls and fixing up small things indoors and outdoors. Since some of our work will be outside, it s essential for everyone to come prepared with waterproof clothing to handle any bad weather that comes our way.The house and the centre need some new colors on the walls, as well as some renovation work needs to be done. You will need waterproof clothes in case of bad weather, as you will be mainly working outside. Other small tasks during the camp may include maintenance or renovation works inside and outside.
