"Tire change with a difference"
or: "What kind of initiatives come to one's mind in order to help others!"
On Saturday 2nd April 2016 the first cars with winter tires arrived at 9 am. No problem for
Frank Matzer, a
hobby mechanic and his well equipped workshop.
On this
tire change day invited
relatives and
friends could get their tires changed. Short waiting periods were no problem, because there was plenty of
drinks and
sausages available and for the kids there was a
bouncy castle.
In the late aftenoon a
live band joined the crowd and created a great atmosphere. Even the owner of the workshop was surprised when a band of
five musicians arrived, although he had only asked a friend, a musician, to come along.
After
more than 30 cars on a sunny day there was still enough time for talks, bouncing, eating and dancing.
The
donation box in the form of a car rim contained
637,-€ for the project ANAK DOMBA. Our
warmest thanks to all
participants, but especially
Frank Matzer.
