Honor badge for merits: Bobenheim-Roxheimer active for your community!

On January 31, 2025, two married couples were awarded for their outstanding social engagement in Rhineland-Palatinate in a solemn event in Kleinniedesheim Castle. Stefanie and Gerhard Karl Jung from Bobenheim-Roxheim as well as Heike and Heiko Schwerdel from Bürstadt received the badge of honor of the State of Rhineland-Palatinate. This award is awarded by the Prime Minister and recognizes people for extraordinary achievements in the service of the community.

District Administrator Clemens Körner (CDU) presented the award in the name of the Prime Minister and emphasized in his speech that all honored honor would have earned this honor. The proposal for the award came from local mayor Ewald Merkel (FWG), who praised the services of the two couples in the local club culture.

engagement in the club work

The excellent couples are active members in several clubs, including the singing club and the poultry and rabbit breeding association. They not only campaigned for the organization of club events such as exhibitions, birthday parties and anniversaries, but were also significantly involved in the implementation of singing meetings. With their active support, they enriched the club life in Kleinniedesheim.

The commitment to advising club members who deal with corn maintenance is particularly remarkable. This type of support contributes to the further development and strengthening of the community and consolidates the role of volunteering in the country's rural regions.

The badge of honor is part of the Order of Merit of the State of Rhineland-Palatinate, which is considered the highest state award and is awarded to personalities who have made extraordinary for the country. As rlp.de reports, the honor includes a broad spectrum of social engagements and also recognizes people who are committed to breastfeeding.

These awards are an expression of the appreciation for the tireless work of many citizens in Rhineland-Palatinate. They show how important volunteering is for the social structure and cohesion in communities.
