SOLIDARITES JEUNESSES RESEAU D'ENTRAIDE VOLONTAIRE

BEAUVOISIN, France

Description

The aim of the workcamp is to build a sauna, a leisure and relaxation facility, close to the Finiels colony, which welcomes volunteers from the REV - Réseau d'entraide volontaire workcamps every year. As the hamlet of Finiels lies at an altitude of 1541m, summer nights can be chilly. Volunteers taking part in this project, as well as those who will follow, will be able to benefit from this infrastructure, which will make the summer evenings warmer, while at the same time helping to strengthen the bonds within the groups. In addition, such a place, which will also be open to the residents of Le Pont-de-Montvert, will provide an opportunity for meetings between international and local volunteers. The REV's vocation is not only to organize collective workcamps, but also to participate in the life of the area, by offering activities to local residents and meetings with workcamp volunteers. The sauna, which will also be open in winter, will be an opportunity to keep the association alive.

Accommodation, food and transport arrangements

You will take part in the construction of these two cabins. Following a period of collective reflection and discussion with people with knowledge of wooden construction, you will implement the construction plan drawn up collectively, to build one cabin to be used as changing rooms and another for the sauna. In this way, you'll be taking part in the construction of a convivial space that you'll be able to enjoy right from the end of your stay. 25h/week

Training during the activity

The workcamp will take place in a particularly isolated area, where you will be accommodated on the REV site in individual tents (remember to bring your sleeping bag). You will have access to sanitary facilities close to the camp. What's more, if weather conditions deteriorate too much for camping, a shelter a few meters away will be available. Meals will be provided and prepared in turn by participants.
