The autoscooters were a big hit
Yesterday, when the double-decker bus stopped in front of the plarrergelande and opened its doors, the joy of the passengers was enormous. Because instead of working in the lebenshilfe workshops, they had a three-hour visit to a carnival on the agenda. Most of the people who got off the bus wanted to rush off and head for the scooters right away. But first, they received a very special ticket from the exhibitors: a gingerbread heart. With this around their necks, they didn't have to wait in line at the cash register to buy ride chips, but could go right away – and all for free.
All booths join in
This action was made possible by the bamberger showmen and market traders as well as the sparkasse bamberg, which had financed the gingerbread hearts. “It is already the seventh time that we invite people with handicaps to the plarrer in order to give them a few pleasant hours”, explained showman reimund meister, who was in charge of organizing the day of action. Because it was always a lot of joy for the exhibitors, if like this year about 1000 happy people enjoyed themselves on the plarrer. That's why, according to meister, all of the exhibitors have agreed to make their vehicles available free of charge to people with disabilities. But the other food and game stands also offered discounted prices.
“We have been offering a special action day for people with disabilities for 20 years now”, also described georg fischer, chairman of the bamberger market traders and exhibitors. However, until about six years ago, only individual groups were invited to participate. In the meantime, the exhibitors at the spring planner invite well over 30 organizations that care for people with disabilities. “What could be better than to look into bright eyes during this day?? We showmen are happy to forego our income for three hours”, said fischer.
And celina (9) and katharina (6) from the vacation care group of the catholic education center, for example, showed how much fun the children, young people and adults had. In unison, while riding on the backs of two horses, they declared: “it was great fun and a really great vacation experience. It is a pity that the three hours passed so quickly.” Besides riding, the two girls enjoyed the rides on the autoscooters the most. The scooters seemed to be the big hit yesterday: not one of the vehicles stood still for three hours.
