Big summer festival in Puchberg: 130 guests celebrate across generations!

In the Puchberg district in Wels, a big summer party was recently celebrated, which brought together the community of all generations. On this colorful afternoon, around 130 guests experienced a great program, organized by the seven generation meetings in the city. In bright sunshine, visitors gathered in the beautiful garden of the facility to celebrate and enjoy together. Mayor Andreas Rabl (FPÖ) and Vice Mayor Klaus Schinninger (SPÖ) did not miss the event and mingled with the guests. The physical well -being was secured by freshly prepared grillhendl, while the musician “Gerhard” with his lively melodies created a happy atmosphere. meinzirk.at

But what makes such generation festivals so special? The exchange between the age groups is extremely valuable. The reality of life of children and seniors is often perceived as completely different. Seniors have experienced war and post-war times, while the younger ones grow up in a much safer world. The communication between these generations is therefore important to avoid misunderstandings and promote harmonious coexistence. Numerous institutions are considering initiating cross -generational projects that support the exchange.

Together under one roof

An example of this is projects that are carried out regularly in cooperation with kindergartens, schools and vocational schools. These encounters are not only enriching for seniors, but also promote the understanding of children for their older people. Learn children, helpfulness and consideration in dealing with older people, which is extremely important for the design of future social structures. Friedrich Rohm, the head of the Therese Stehlin home, has clearly recognized the importance of such projects and is committed to ensuring that children and seniors can spend time together. This happens, for example, in birthday singing or with various music offers. diakoneo.de .

Such events like the summer festival in Wels not only create joy, they also offer a great platform to reduce prejudices and establish new friendships. The colorful activities support the coexistence and allow every generation to benefit from the experiences of the others. The interaction of both sides helps to reduce fears and to strengthen society as a whole.

A look back shows that similar generational festivals in other communities were very well received, such as the festival in Leopoldshöhe, in which the entire village community came together in order to be closer. Such joint celebrations set a sign of a harmonious cohesion that is essential for a positive development of society. The coexistence in the generations comes first and shows how important mutual support is.
