仕事内容 | "The Time for Youth" summer camp will consist of the following tasks: 1. At the small youth energy station point, where we organize daily meetings, we expect you to conduct traditional Cultural Evenings for Latvian youth, where you can share about your country, its opportunities, traditions, and interesting facts. You may also participate in some activities to share your personal experiences. 2. Each year, we organize a charity event by going to the fields and forests to pick flowers, oak branches, and other traditional L?go decorations to create special bouquets and wreaths under the guidance of a specialist. These will then be donated in exchange for contributions to collect funds for the organization "The Time for Youth" and its work with rural region youth, including at-risk youth?street youth. 3. We have a large charity warehouse in the district, where we provide humanitarian aid to Latvian and Ukrainian civilians, but during the summer period, we will move to newer, better-equipped facilities. We need help sorting clothes from more than 1,000 boxes by size and gender, so they can be placed in the appropriate boxes. About L?go celebrations: L?go celebrations are the traditional J??i holidays celebrated in Latvia on the night of the summer solstice. These holidays symbolize the time of light, summer, and the flourishing of nature. The main essence of the holiday is to celebrate the return of the sun and fertility. L?go holidays are associated with various folklore and ritual traditions, such as weaving wreaths from grasses and flowers. A significant part of it is L?go singing, which includes traditional songs. Eating is another tradition of the holiday, with bread, cheese, and beer served at the table. Many celebrants also watch the sunset and light bonfires. A notable activity is L?going during the night, when people dance and sing. It is believed that celebrating helps ensure a good harvest for the following year. L?go holidays are a clear symbol of community and cultural heritage in Latvia. L?go is celebrated every year from June 23rd to 24th. You will have the opportunity to experience traditional L?go - J??i in Latvia, creating unforgettable emotions and memories. We will ensure that you have the chance to attend several offered events in the region, including in Riga (the capital of Latvia). |
