The initial activities of Community Partnership Days already behind us

This year’s »season« was opened on April 13 with a clean-up session in the Kolpa river valley. Our associates joined the »Kočevska Cleanup« initiative engaging in cleaning a flash flood gorge, in cooperation with the Slovenian Forest Service. Coordinator Tanja Balažic Peček stressed that this action was only possible with the cooperation and a large team, which has taken place in this part of Slovenia for the third time in a row.

No less hardworking was a group of associates who went a week later to Pacug. They set about maintaining the grounds and the surrounding area of the Slovenian Friends of the Youth resort: they were happily painting, sweeping, pruning, planting and tidying up, and above all keeping in good spirits and finally ending with the conclusion that they, Lek’s associates, had done a great job once again.

The April activities were concluded on April 21 with a blood donation session in Lendava.
