The aim of the Gelateria is to create a cosy place where young people can be together in an informal way. It should be a cheap alternative to the Beizenbesuch and allow contacts
The Gelateria
is also an opening to the "outside" (for insider groups looking for contacts) It promotes the existing relationships within the group and the commitment.
Duration / Period:
Once a week during the summer months (early June to late September) Due to high start-up costs, this project should be run for at least two seasons.
Suitable for:
- from medium group size (min. 20 persons)
- in village or city environment
Materials needed:
- IMPORTANT: A good (ideal) location is of great importance!
- Material: see material list in the appendix Gelateria
Support:
Find sponsors in the village (shops, political and private associations) and/or in your community! (E.g. an old freezer from the village electrical shop)
Costs:
Approx. 2'000.- are required as starting capital (taking into account that not everything has to be purchased new!)
IMPORTANT: If the Gelateria works, the expenses are covered, respectively, can be closed with profit.
Execution of the project:
Once a week (e.g. Saturday evening) tables, chairs, sunshades, a counter, a freezer, a refrigerator, coupe glasses and all other material will be dragged here, set up and installed. It is a great advantage to have the material depot in close proximity.
Important Notes:
The following principles apply: Anyone can help out. Alcohol and intoxicants will not be tolerated.
To ensure that gelateria work does not become too much of a burden for individuals, it is advisable to form different task teams, which then rotate according to a set work schedule. A precise, uniform introduction is essential! (So that a Coupe Maison always contains roughly the same thing and also looks similar externally...)
Further, the tasks (serving, preparing coupe, counter, etc.) must be clearly regulated and, if possible, always carried out by the same people (in this way, duplicate orders can be avoided...) Since fresh fruit is needed weekly, it is an advantage if the same person always does the shopping (because of the calculation of quantities).
And finally, there is a lot to do!
Application:
- As Friendship Evangelism
- Doing something (good) for the village
- Promoting the teenage group
