PARTNERSHIP BENCH

During our summer festival  Kaczawskie Warsztaty Artystyczne we have started preparing our  partnership bench. The idea was brought by Bogusia during our project meeting and everybody like it! So “we” did. Of course not everythink, with machine and hands of Tomasz - local artist. Three partners, three places! Bench almost ready :) 

A few weeks later, wood was already dry and ready to paint..

 

President has screwed up a plaque :) after long negotiations, where hover… Plate so that everyone knew that: 

 

CALENDAR WITH OLD PHOTOS AND STORIES FROM OUR VILLAGE

The history of our village through the eyes of its inhabitants recorded in the pictures - family memorabilia collected by the two generations. An unusual album of historical photos and calendar all in one. After cutting the bottom part of the calendar, is an album of photos showing the specific events from the past of Dobków and disappearing rural folk customs.

Version in english is prepared  as a pdf file, for people from the Dobków we printed in polish.

First  football team after the war, we recognize players..

Album/Calendar made by craftsmen as befits the place. Ala, Stenia, Gosia bind calendar cards cord in local galery „Pod Aniołem" Bogusia- thank you for your hospitality.

HIKING AND EDUCATIONAL PATH OPENING

We write to the list of participants of the hiking tour. There were close to 60 people!

We set out first by Dobków. To the house smells, the first educational tool on the path. Check to see if we recognize the smells of our village.

 

The first hill is behind us and we have got a reward - educational board about the role of woodlots in the environment. A coal on paper will outline the list of trees that we can find on the way to Kapliczna and learn to recognize.

Educational boards are cubes, referring to the shape of the pillars of basalt, because we live in the Land of Extinct Volcanoes. Despite the heat out of the sky, all bravely reach the Kapliczna Hill and the second educational cube and are willing to follow the path through the trees to the quarry below the chapel. Because we were there for a moment at the bottom of the ocean in which millions years ago underwater volcanoes erupted.  

  

Another moment in the pleasant cool of the chapel along with a mysterious history Dobków and its Founders. And we go on to the sun, to find out how to catch butterflies, and that you can look for them ... in a puddle.

  

Again, a little cold and another board dedicated to the great founder of the landscape - the river. About the river and what the river is not afraid, of course on the riverside told Kamil Struś and Ewelina. Kamil also taught us how to entice birds.

 

Finally we came to the pond, picnic time. Even children are not loitered that only sausage ...

 

Back. From here we could see the roofs of the houses in Dobkowie and  beautiful panorama of the Ostrzyca and Grodźca in the background (extinct volcanoes).

That was truly family hiking tour. The youngest participants had little more than a year. There were young people, aduts, and of course our seniors. Thank you for your company. And those who were not, I hope we convinced that it is worth to go with us next time.
