From Holland to Galliate and Ronco: Il Rifugio is on move
Posted on 23 September 2014.Last Sunday we celebrated the coming of Fall with Autumn Grooming Day: it was a lovely afternoon and more than 500 people joined us (thanks to them, the donkeys - more players, the staff and volunteers!). But there’s no time to rest, for some brilliant events are on the way soon.
On 28th September Lodovica and Ilaria are flying to Baarle-Nassau (Holland) for the Internationale Ezeldag, an event that will bring together many European charities involved in donkey rescue. There will be meetings with donkey farriers, dentists, physiotherapists and behaviorists, fun demonstrations, entertainment for children and something that we cannot wait to discover more about: "Music for the donkeys." We will keep you updated!
On Saturday, October 4th our stand will be at the Festival Olistico Internazionale (NO), three days of events dedicated to health, wellness, conferences, bio products, shows, seminars, music, exhibitions and art, to discover "The senses of the soul”. Events will be hosted at Castello Sforzesco in Galliate (NO); free admission.
Last but not least, on Sunday 5th October il Rifugio will be present at the Festival of Pailet in Ronco Biellese (BI). The "pailet" is a terracotta pot, a true symbol of the skill of the ancient artisans of Ronco. There will be a ceramic laboratory; from 10 to 18, in addition, there will be stalls in the main square and in Via Roma, exhibitions, music, theatre, culinary events and many other initiatives.
