The event will start at Masaryk Square on Saturday, 4th September at 1 p.m. „Children will collect the competition card at the Foundation Stand which will be stamped for every action they perform.

 

Everybody who earns ten stamps can come to the OKD Foundation Stand at Božena Němcová Park to collect the reward. And on top of that these children will get the right to vote for one of three organisations,“ explained the speaker of the OKD Foundation, Vladislav Sobol. The system of voting will be kept confidential till Saturday. „I can only disclose that in order that children would help some one else they must give up something,“ added Sobol.

 

Three not-for-profit organisations focused on the leisure activities of children in Karviná will compete for the children´s votes. They include “Sdružení maminek Sluníčko” (mums´ association Sluníčko), Klub mladých Filadelfia (Youngsters Club Filadelfia) and Akademie J. A. Komenského (Academy of J.A. Komenský).
