ZELENKA 35 – a celebration to remember

The celebration of ZELENKA’s 35th anniversary turned into a colourful, joyful and unforgettable journey around the world. Two hundred amazing people joined us on board for this adventure – employees, their families, friends, customers, translators, language instructors and even graphic designers. It was a dream crew that gave our journey a truly unique atmosphere.

Our young travellers dove into a world full of adventure and excitement. They practised take-offs and landings in a bouncy castle, rehearsed emergency evacuations on an inflatable slide, met exotic – albeit plush – animals, and joined the grown-ups in enjoying a lively performance by Brdík the Clown. They played sports, got creative, laughed and had their faces painted with the colours and patterns of their favourite tribes.

Meanwhile, the adults explored a variety of continental corners – from a chill-out zone and sports areas to a beauty salon offering the services of make-up artists Lucie and Petra. A fiery samba dance performance transported us to Brazil, and traditional hammered dulcimer music brought us right back home to Czechia’s Slovácko region, setting many hearts (and feet) dancing.

And how were the travellers taken care of? Wonderfully! Our energetic host Monika made sure we stuck to our travel itinerary so we wouldn’t miss a single attraction along the way. DJ Michal provided just the right backdrop for a swinging journey. We kept our weary adventurers energized with delicious refreshments from Restaurace na koupališti. The food was so popular that queues formed at our culinary stations – like at an airport gate before it opens.

The final customs check went smoothly – everyone left with “luggage” full of joy, laughter and beautiful memories. Children drifted off – at home or still on the road – brimming with memories, while the adults dozed smiling, certain the journey was worth it.

This celebration wasn’t just a reminder of what we’ve accomplished together over the last 35 years. It was also proof that when we come together, we can achieve anything – with love, lightness and joy.

We’d like to thank everyone who joined us on this journey.
