As part of the anniversary, there will also be digital formats. Among other things, this includes the annual “50 years of 50 years”, in which a “highlight” or “insider tip” from the district area is presented every week. These 50 eye -catchers were selected together with the 16 cities and municipalities. In addition, a digital exhibition entitled "Time jumps" is offered that compares historical photos with more recent motifs. The exhibition that under the direction of district archivist Dr. Beate Sturm and her team were created, presented various motifs, including the Museum Schloss Moyland and the site of the old Klever harbor. This digital exhibition is presented both as part of the festive events and online.
In addition, the home club Materborn celebrated its 50th anniversary. The first chairman of the association, Birgit Walterfang, recalled in her opening speech that she had just learned to run and speak at the year of the association. The name of the association has changed over the years; The home club was originally responsible, among other things, for garden evaluation and crowned a garden queen every year. Nowadays, the association is organizing events such as the Memorial Day and the Nicolaus celebrations. Franz Derksen as well as Gerd and Thea Derks were particularly honored for their long -term loyalty to the association, since they have been active in the club since it was founded.
These two significant events emphasize the history and commitment of the community in the district of Kleve and Materborn and testify to the lively tradition that is still being maintained.
