Review of the 2024 summer festival of the Bunte Kreis Magdeburg
Last Saturday, 7 September 2024, the grounds of Magdeburg University Women's Hospital were transformed into a cheerful meeting place for families. The Bunte Kreis Magdeburg once again invited parents with their children who were born prematurely and/or ill, who had to spend a long time in hospital and subsequently received socio-medical care, to a colourful summer party - and almost 40 families accepted the invitation!
In glorious summer weather, young and old spent a sociable afternoon full of wonderful moments. Coffee and cake catered for their physical well-being, while the younger guests were kept amused with lots of surprises. The musical accompaniment by the band NORBEAT and the magical entertainment provided by the Menschenzauber e.V. association in particular ensured an exuberant, cheerful atmosphere.
Thanks to the active support of Sanitätshaus Strehlow, the party went off without a hitch. A big thank you for that!
In addition to the cheerful atmosphere, the party also provided an opportunity to meet and socialise. Parents had the opportunity to network with other families in similar situations, share experiences or simply take a deep breath and enjoy a little break from everyday life.
It was a wonderful afternoon that everyone involved enjoyed. We are already looking forward to the next summer party in 2025 and to many more wonderful hours together!
