3rd Chemnitz Freeathlon
On Friday, 8 July 2016, the 3rd "Chemnitz Freeathlon" will take place from 1 pm to 6 pm in the Uferpark am Schloßteich with exciting events and sporting activities for girls, young women and interested parties. Interested parties and groups from youth and cultural organisations are cordially invited to take part.
The project is organised and supported by the working groups "Girls and Young Women" and "Boys", the Netzwerk für Kultur- und Jugendarbeit e. V. and the Department for Educational Child and Youth Protection of the City of Chemnitz. Girls, young women and anyone else from Chemnitz who is interested can take the opportunity to try their hand at various sporting and creative activities. They are given an insight into the variety of different indoor and outdoor activities and can take advantage of corresponding offers "without pressure to perform". The focus is on having fun being active, promoting team spirit and, above all, boosting the participants' self-esteem.
Freeathletes can expect sporting activities such as skating on a mini ramp, slackline, archery, climbing on an artificial climbing rock, football, volleyball or basketball, American football with kit, baseball and softball, mini golf, ultimate frisbee, table tennis, target fishing and dancing to a jukebox. There will also be creative activities such as designing T-shirts and shopping bags, drumming, crocheting and knitting, designing friendship bracelets and taking friendship photos. There will also be a stage programme with "Kunos Kinderkiste" and four different bands and musicians will be demonstrating their skills. A DJane workshop and Zumba will also be on offer. Guests can find information about the work of various Chemnitz providers at hands-on stands and can expand their knowledge with tests and activities. Catering will be provided.
