This year's cottage weekend in the picturesque Franconian Switzerland was a complete success! The People of Lieberty came together to experience a weekend full of action, tradition and culinary delights. The focus was on the shared experience - and it was a highlight in every respect.
Highland Games: a journey into Scottish tradition
Saturday was all about the Highland Games, a Scottish tradition dating back over 900 years. These games were originally a peaceful competition between clans to determine the strongest and fastest warriors. Today, the Highland Games are popular worldwide, and the People of Lieberty also had the opportunity to take on the role of clansmen and clanswomen.
The teams competed against each other in various disciplines such as axe throwing, caber tossing, barrel rolling, tug of war, archery, rubber boot throwing and tree trunk slalom. It was not just about strength and skill, but also about teamwork and strategic thinking. Each team designed its own clan crest and competed with full commitment to revive the tradition of the Highland Games. The atmosphere was exuberant and the participants were enthusiastic
Cooking together and BBQ in the open air
After an action-packed day, the evening was rounded off with a BBQ together. In the open space of our cosy self-catering house, the People of Lieberty prepared a delicious dinner together with a professional chef.
Under the chef's guidance, various dishes were grilled and prepared while the participants reflected on the day.
We are already looking forward to the next team event, which will once again bring us new challenges and shared experiences.
