In a heartfelt gesture of humanity and solidarity, Mauritia Mack, wife of Europa-Park owner Jürgen Mack and ambassador of the Bundesverband Kinderhospiz e.V. (BVKH), invited affected families to an unforgettable day at Germany's largest amusement park during the winter season. This special event offered families, who face extraordinary challenges in daily life, the opportunity to experience joy and relaxation in an enchanting setting.
Shared Moments at Lunch
The day began with a joint lunch, which was more than just a culinary experience. It symbolized the community and compassion extended by the organizers to the families. For the children and their relatives, these moments were a welcome distraction from everyday life and provided an opportunity to come together in an atmosphere of joy and serenity.
Gifts That Warm the Heart
After the meal, the children were surprised with lovingly selected gifts. This gesture of generosity not only brought smiles to the children's faces but also highlighted the message of hope and support that the BVKH wishes to convey. The gifts were a symbol of care and recognition of the challenges these families face daily.
Discovery Tour Through Europa-Park
Subsequently, the families had the opportunity to explore the diverse attractions of Europa-Park. With its 16 European themed areas, each representing its own, lovingly designed world, the park offered an escape from everyday life and an adventure for all senses. Over 100 attractions were available to visitors, from breathtaking roller coasters to relaxing boat rides, catering to every age group.
Cultural and Artistic Highlights
The show program of the Circus Revue and the Kambly Winter Bakery, where decorating gingerbread became a creative experience, were other highlights of the day. The exhibition “Da lachen ja die Hühner – Peter Gaymann's Drawings at Europa-Park” offered the families a humorous and artistic diversion, focusing on smiles and the joy of life.
