Prancing Platypus Camp
Hnuti Brontosaurus
Hroní Kounice, Tchéquie
Description
Come and join us on a camp where you will climb out of your shell to meet new people, try new things, and get busy as a bee helping to restore an old anabaptist residence. Don’t be an ostrich and sign up for the Prancing Platypus Camp to perk up! Prancing Platypus is a great opportunity to meet new people and better understand their origins. Together, we will experience 14 days full of adventures, volunteer work, new experiences, and, most importantly, new friendships. You also get a tremendous opportunity to learn more about local culture and traditions. The camp is designed to learn more about the cultures of other participants.
Modalités d'hébergement, de restauration et de transport
The camp will take place in Alinkov - an old anabaptist residence near a small village Čermákovice Czech Republic. We will be sleeping on-site - on the ground in the building (a mat and a sleeping bag are a necessity) or outside in tents (in that case, bring your own tent). We will all sleep in one shared room (the sleeping area is gender mixed). Cooking will be done mainly on fire or a portable stove.
There will be a dry toilet only and no shower (hygiene will be done in buckets or the river). Mobile network is available only for calling and SMS.
Formation pendant l’activité
Working for 5-7 hours for 10 days (we will take rest days). The work will vary depending on the weather and current needs of the Alinkov monument. But don’t worry, you won’t be beavering away at it we might be cleaning out the building, or repairing a fence… When we won’t be working, we will have some activities prepared, but you can share your own. It can be games, workshops, sharing your knowledge on various themes,... The surrounding nature just asks for walks around the river, so bring some comfy shoes. There will also be a Canis-therapeutic dog present.
