Brocante Jeunes Sapeurs Pompiers - Stiring-Wendel

A flea market for the benefit of the Young Firefighters

The Young Firefighters of Stiring-Wendel are organizing their annual flea market, an event that combines a car boot sale and a traditional flea market. Individuals offer clothes, toys, books, tableware, small furniture, and various items. The proceeds from the event are used to finance the activities, training, and equipment of the JSP section.

Stiring-Wendel, city of the mining basin

Stiring-Wendel is a town of about 12,000 inhabitants located in the Lorraine mining basin, bordering Forbach and the German border (Saarbrücken). Once a mining town linked to the De Wendel family, the city preserves a remarkable industrial heritage and a spirit of solidarity inherited from its mining history. The associative fabric is particularly dense, as evidenced by the commitment of the Young Firefighters.

JSP, vocation and commitment

The Young Firefighters form the next generation of volunteer firefighters. From the age of 12, young people learn first aid, how to use equipment, and the values of solidarity specific to this corps. Organizing events like this flea market is an integral part of their training in associative life and civic engagement.
