Palatinate Forest Association in Need: Management positions urgently wanted!

The Palatinate Forest Association, local group Frankenthal, sees itself in a critical Situation and urgently is looking for new persons for management offices. Chairman Dieter Glöckner found at the last general meeting that the association's culture, which has established itself for 121 years, floated in danger without new managers. In the current search for candidates, there has been no success so far what the members are concerned. According to rheinpfalz.de is in acute danger.

Despite these challenges, the association can announce positive news. The response to the hiking and bike tours offered is gratifying. These activities are in demand for 2024, with 19 hiking guides invested a lot of time in preparing for their tours. The next hikes are already planned on March 15 and 26 and on April 9th. In addition, there will be a hiking leisure several days from September 9th to 16th, 2024 in the Allgäu.

membership and challenges

Special planting campaigns are planned on March 22nd and October 18, 2024. However, Hucke will withdraw in 2026 for health reasons, which presents the organization with additional challenges. A new route concept for the Palatinate Forest is also being planned, but not yet implemented. The local group looks after the Alte Schmelz, Red Hohl and Klausal hiking trails.

commitment to the future

In order to counter the falling number of members and the difficulties in the management area, it is crucial to promote a volunteer -friendly organizational culture that serves as a foundation for successful commitment funding. According to vibss.de , the promotion and appreciation of voluntary work should be part of the club DNA. Strategic measures to create a positive basic attitude towards voluntary activities are necessary. This also includes the implementation of a fixed contact person for volunteering in the club, which has the support of the board.

The youth manager Eva-Maria Wenz also planned a special program for children and young people in order to actively integrate younger members. The next tours for this group will take place on March 15 and May 25, 2024.

With regard to the financial situation of the association, the income was around 15,000 euros, while the expenditure was around 12,560 euros. However, there are challenges because some members book their annual contributions rather than terminate properly. The main association Neustadt also plans to increase annual fees by five euros in the coming year, which could possibly stimulate additional members to linger.

The future of the Palatinate Forest Association now depends heavily on the inclusion of new leaders and the creation of a committed and supportive club environment to continue the tradition of 121 years.
