After teh big event (6-12 of July)



The week after the seminar was quite relaxed for the volunteers. Everyone was a little bit tired but also happy that everything went so well!
On Monday we had a meeting to make a plan for the last month of Moritz, Clem and Paul. We are going to make some movie activity, an outdoor day and we will go kayaking again in august.
 On Tuesday Clemence left Rezekne early in the morning and went to Riga where she participated in the 11th Latvijas skolu jaunatnes dziemu un deju svetki which is a very famous Latvian folk music and dance festival. They were playing every day and also danced a lot! She even was on the television playing one song! On Friday it was Clemences birthday and although she didn’t expect anything the other musicians gave her some nice gifts like a concert ticket for the festival and a dried fish instead of flowers. All in all it was a very interesting week for her but she was also super exhausted when she finally came back to Rezekne on Sunday evening!
In JACis the volunteers had a quite interesting week because there were a lot of youngsters that were really active so we played a lot of games with them as monopoly, durak, uno and pool. On Wednesday we also made some handicrafts like flowers and ships made from paper.
On Thursday morning the JACis team went to the job agency in Rezekne to present the Erasmus+ program and especially the EVS to unemployed young people. Compared to the last time we were there this time there were a few really interested people who were asking questions! We don’t know if they will come to JACis to get more information or to have a sending organization but at least we informed them about the opportunity to do an EVS and maybe they will remember one day!
And then on Friday Moritz and Paul tried to organize a digital competence workshop about gaming because they expected the youngsters to be interested at least in this kind of activity but pitifully only one boy showed up and played one match of age of empires with them. It was a little bit disappointing but we hope that the next time there will be more participants!
