Fanfare from Rijkevorsel receives instruments from supporters after bus fire: "Heartwarming solidarity"
The Rijkevorsel fanfare 'Vermaak na Arbeid' has received instruments from supporters after losing many in a bus fire. The incident occurred while returning from a music festival in Germany, resulting in the loss of nearly 20 instruments. The president, Jonas Geens, expressed gratitude for the solidarity shown by various organizations and individuals. A crowdfunding campaign is underway to replace the lost instruments, as the costs are significant. Geens mentioned that they will carefully plan the purchase to avoid mistakes. Future participation in the festival in Germany remains uncertain, pending further evaluation.
