A group of children from the Gomel region of Belarus enjoyed an unforgettable day at Europa-Park. This visit was organized by the Tschernobylkinder Weil am Rhein working group to give the children a break from the challenges of their homeland.

Invitation to Europa-Park

The Mack family, owners of Europa-Park, invited a group of ten children and two caregivers from Shlobin, Belarus, to spend a special day at the amusement park. The children, all from the Gomel region heavily affected by the Chernobyl disaster, were able to enjoy the many attractions and shows in the park. The visit was a highlight of their stay in Germany, providing them with carefree moments and great joy.

Commitment of the Tschernobylkinder Working Group

The Tschernobylkinder Weil am Rhein working group, which has been active since 1994, organizes annual stays for children from the Gomel region. The goal of this initiative is to provide the children with medical care and relaxing holidays in Southern Baden. This year's visit included a day at Europa-Park and other activities, offering the children a respite from the difficulties of their home environment.

Support from Volunteer Helpers

The organization and implementation of the program are significantly supported by volunteers from the evangelical church community in Weil am Rhein. These dedicated helpers ensure that the children receive not only medical care but also loving support and diverse leisure activities.

Importance of the Program

The Tschernobylkinder program is crucial for the affected families in Belarus. It provides the children with medical treatment and the opportunity to recharge in a stress-free environment. The annual visit to Germany has long-term positive effects on the children's health and well-being.

A Day Full of Joy and Adventure

The day at Europa-Park was a special experience for the children. They enjoyed the park's numerous attractions and were thrilled by the shows and rides. With beaming eyes, they relished the exciting adventures and the magical atmosphere of the park. This day will surely remain a lasting memory for the children and their caregivers.
