Gronau City Marketing has put together a colorful\, varied program that will transform downtown Gronau into a paradise of play and discovery over several days.  \nRight from the start\, as part of the Fair World Children’s Day celebrations at Kurt-Schumacher-Platz (“Kurti”)\, “The E-Train” will be making free rounds starting at 2:00 p.m.\, sure to set the hearts of young train fans racing. The train will also be running on the following days.  \n“Our goal was to organize a city festival where families could enjoy a few pleasant hours with free activities. With the kids’ zone\, the bounce houses\, our mascot\, and more\, we’ve made that happen—and above all\, thanks to the support of Sparkasse Westmünsterland\,” said Luana Dörken of Gronau City Marketing. \nSaturday continues to be a colorful day: Starting at 10:00 a.m.\, the popular children’s flea market in the city center invites you to browse\, haggle\, and discover treasures. On the Kids’ Mile\, Gronau’s friendly mascot “Türmchen” will put smiles on everyone’s faces and be on hand for souvenir photos. The iconic character Richie will also be visiting the city for a photo op\, while right next to him\, the Urenco bounce house invites kids to let off some steam.   \nIf you’re in the mood for some exercise and prizes\, MIG’s exciting hands-on activities and raffle are just the thing for you. Kids and teens who love to dance will also get their money’s worth: TV Gronau invites you to a Video Clip Dance with Gika (3:00 p.m. & 4:00 p.m.) and will present spectacular choreographies\, and TV Gronau’s Free Artisten will also be there. In addition\, all young dancers can cheer on the Gronau Fools’ Guild and the show by the “Move and Shine” club. “A city festival thrives on participation and community. We’re very pleased that so many clubs are taking part again this year\,” summarizes Elke Rinke (Stadtmarketing Gronau).    \nAs the city festival continues\, there are plenty of wonderful activities for families: In addition to the stilt walkers from the KuBiG event\, dressed in their autumnal “leaves\,” artist Pele will delight visitors in the city center with his whimsical balloon figures. Musical highlights\, food stands\, and sports activities make the weekend of September 18–20 the perfect destination for the whole family.  \n  \nAdmission to the Gronau City Festival is free.
