Feuerzauber in Linden: 60 Christmas trees burn for a good cause!
On January 19, 2025, the members of the youth fire brigade Linden celebrated a special occasion: their 60th birthday. For this anniversary, a spectacular Christmas tree fire took place on the gymnasium, which attracted around 150 visitors. This premiere not only represented an important ceremony, but also offered a welcome opportunity to meet in a sociable group and celebrate together. During the event, the guests were provided with sausages, mulled wine and punch, which contributed to the festive mood.
Totally, impressive 60 Christmas trees were burned on this day. These trees were not only decoration from the festival, but also part of a larger campaign to benefit the youth fire brigade. Part of the money collected is used for an excursion from the youth fire brigade. Remaining trees that were waiting for collection on the side of the road were shredded and filled two containers, which underlines the environmentally friendly side of the event.
Christmas tree collection campaigns in the region
in Seubersdorf, in turn, the local youth fire brigade showed a strong commitment by collecting trees from the roadside on Saturday. This campaign was organized by the group "Wilde Waldmeister" by the OGV Seubersdorf and is now a permanent tradition in the region. The trees collected were transported to Konrad Götz with agricultural vehicles, which is responsible for professional disposal. Here, too, the young people of the base brigade receive revenues from the campaign, which supports their work and activities.
The meaning of this tradition
The Christmas tree collection is an integral part of the annual calendar in many communities. On January 13, 2025, such an event also took place in Gersfeld, in which numerous citizens took the opportunity to deliver their disused Christmas trees. The fire brigade and the youth fire brigade collected the trees and then burned them. This tradition not only promotes the community, but also strengthens the bond between the fire brigade and the population. It is an occasion that goes far beyond the practical disposal of Christmas trees and creates a feeling of cohesion and common ground
Overall, these events show how commitment, tradition and sense of community come together in the communities. The remains of the Christmas trees not only bring financial benefits for the youth fire brigades, but also contribute to the promotion of relationships within the village awareness.
