Dozens of bottles were fished out of the Gröbenbach.

Walter Voit and Melanie Demeter stacked them.

Gröbenzell is supposed to be cleaner and has therefore called for a Ramadama.

The success was enormous: around 200 citizens of all ages took part and collected rubbish together.

Gröbenzell – In previous years, Ramadama was limited to the area around the Böhmerweiher.

Around 45 garbage collectors were out and about here alone.

This year, on the occasion of the community's 70th birthday, the whole town was cleaned up.

The town hall had determined seven meeting points at which the refuse collectors were provided with gloves, rubbish bags and, in some cases, rubbish grabs by municipal councils and depot employees.

Citizens were out in droves.

Also present was Marco Deissenbeck, who was standing in the Gröbenbach with rubber boots on his feet.

He was supported by his two children, Anika and Tobias.

Deissenbeck is already an experienced garbage collector and has repeatedly participated in the Ramadama campaign at the Böhmerweiher in recent years.

At the Groebenbach

This year he and his children have chosen an area on the northern Gröbenbach to collect rubbish.

The family lives here and sees every day that there is rubbish there too.

Above all, the three pulled beer and wine bottles out of the stream.

Community worker Melanie Demeter stacked mountains of bottles at the associated collection point on the Bahnweg.

The Deissenbecks also collected plastic in all forms and many, many cigarette butts.

"Poison cocktails", as the green councilor Walter Voit, who was also wearing gloves, a garbage bag and a garbage grab, called it.

The corona masks have been added to the garbage that is produced.

Melanie Demeter and Walter Voit are convinced that these are not disposed of intentionally in the environment, but often fall out of the trouser, jacket or coat pocket when the mobile phone is pulled out.

What Voit also discovered are leftovers from Christmas.

Because near the meeting point at the small recycling center on Bahnweg there was probably a collection point for used Christmas trees.

Months later he collected some leftover tinsel there.

E-scooter collected

In other places, an e-scooter, moped tires and even a corrugated iron roof were removed from nature.

Also present were Joanna Adler and Nina Möllers with their children Kai, Emilia and Carlotta.

In Carlotta's class at the Gröbenbach School, there had been an advertisement to take part in the campaign.

On the one hand, nature could be freed from rubbish during a short walk and, on the other hand, the parents of the children could get to know each other better.

Konrad Maier was also drawn to the Gröbenbach, supported by granddaughter Julie.

Maier was very enthusiastic about the great response.

"It's great that so many people came," he enthuses.

His granddaughter was also highly motivated.

"It was a lot of fun," she says happily.

At the end of the campaign, the rubbish collectors were able to fortify themselves with apple spritzer, mineral water, cheese or sausage rolls.

However, this year the participation was larger than previously assumed, so that the 140 rolls donated by the municipality were not enough.
