Meeting: a safe outdoor area

Our countryside is beautiful, but it is also vulnerable. Vacant barns and yards can be attractive to criminals. Therefore, the municipality of Opsterland is committed to awareness and cooperation. We cordially invite you to the lunch meeting 'Together for a safe outlying area'.
