It’s time to get active! Gopher invites to leave the city behind and to join us on our walking trip through the tulip fields close to the village of Uithuizermeeden. During these walks, we will enjoy the beautiful, colorful North Groningen landscape, since the tulips will be in full bloom. The route starts in Uithuizermeeden and leads past and every now and then through the bulb fields of the Hogeland.
This walk is organized by the Rotary Fellowship. Each year, they relate it to a good cause - this year, they support the ‘Be Girl’ campaign in Mozambique, which aims to empower girls and young women through two main pathways, namely 1) by educating them about the importance of hygiene and sanitation, and 2) by providing them with sanitary products. By walking, you will support the campaign!
Gopher has bought a limited number of tickets, which allows us to take a 10 kilometer hike through the tulip fields. For this event, we work on a first-come-first-serve basis. If you are interested in joining us, sign up as soon as possible!
