Youth Camp of the Balloon Club if Stuttgart

After we had had quite a lot of rain in the past years, we were lucky again in 2007: Fine and warm summer weather awaited us at our well-known youth camp meadow at Lützelburg near Augsburg in Bavaria.

The nice weather allowed two beautiful balloon flights with two balloons each, so that every participant had the possibility to be in the air.

At the Friday morning flight, the gas balloon of the Stuttgart club was also with us.

The favourite game in the camp: dodgeball!

Apart from this sportive amusement, the open air swimming pool of the town of Gersthofen and the famous scouting game were also part of our program.

In the kitchen, any help was appreciated - even from the little ones, who are here washing the salad.

The evenings were the time for the model balloons - our D-MINI on the right, on the left the new model of the Stuttgart club.

The camp fire was the meeting point for all the participants on every evening...

...til late, we played, sung and laughed. Of course, the traditional camp song contest also was held there.

On Sunday morning, we could even launch our new solar balloon.

The roundabout 40 participants were really happy with the successful youth camp - and if nothing intervenes, we will meet again next year at the same time on the same meadow :-)
