West showed himself at his Best
A small idea can just grow into a wonderful event. When Monique from Levanto struck up a conversation with Janyi and Linda from the Ruilwinkel and Ivy from Radar, the idea of organizing "something" together was born. The goal was better cooperation between the Westhoes and FlexiForum. It became the event West at its Best. Thursday, March 30, was the day.
And the result was great! It was a pleasant meeting day where free activities for and by Kerkrade-West residents took place. There were stands in the Flexiforum where companies and organizations promoted their services and products. Vie Kerkrade was also present. But residents were also able to introduce themselves. The Kerkrade-West neighborhood has many well-known, but also many hidden gems, which presented themselves in a beautiful way.
The afternoon started with the festive reopening of the Ruilwinkel Kerkrade by Alderman Roland. Then visitors could learn about the neighborhood rooms, Come on the Soup, repair café Kerkrade-West and much more. Furthermore, workshops were organized. In between there was a fashion show, which included students from the Vazom and Het Martin Buber. The mayor proudly closed with a word of thanks.
In Kerkrade West, not only many organizations, but also local residents are very active. The Flexiforum is a business building located in the former Campus, which houses various organizations and companies.
