Salzgittersee: Boat rental before sales - an era comes to an end
Salzgittersee: Boat rental before sales - an era comes to an end
in the heart of Salzgitter, directly at the picturesque Salzgittersee, the couple Eugen Steiner and his partner lead a boat rental, which was a popular leisure option for locals and tourists for over two decades. But now they are at a turning point: Eugen has decided to sell the company. The reasons for this are diverse and touching.
Eugen Steiner's decision for health
Eugen, who has been operating as an operator of the boat rental since 2004, has built up a flourishing business over the years that has been in operation in summer from April to October. For him, work often begins at 6 a.m. to prepare everything for the opening between 10 a.m. and 10:30 a.m. On days with good weather, the rush is tall; The guests are often already in long snakes to borrow the pedal boats, SUP boards or canoes.
But Eugen is forced to rethink his entrepreneurial activities. "It is not so easy to work here as a sick person with 65 from morning to evening," he says. He suffers from Parkinson's, an illness that limits his physical resilience and increasingly difficult to operate the boat rental.
The partner and the will to continue
Future of the boat rental uncertain
The boat rental has become a significant business in Salzgitter over the years, not only for the couple, but also for the community that takes part in the activities at Salzgittersee. Eugen has closed the environment at the lake into his heart and often feels like a holiday destination. However, the question remains what happens when no buyer is found. Eugen is unsure whether he can continue in this case. "It depends on the disease," he says thoughtfully.
The situation of the two illustrates how closely health, personal decisions and the economic well -being of a community are connected. While Eugen thinks about his future, it remains to be seen whether a buyer can take over the heir to the boat rental in order to continue the tradition of leisure activities at Salzgittersee.
The social importance of the boat rental
The boat rental on Lake Salzgitter not only symbolizes leisure fun, but also the commitment of an individual who has operated a facility for years that has enjoyed many people. Eugen's withdrawal could have far -reaching consequences for leisure activities in the region. The closure of the rental would not only end a business, but also question a piece of quality of life for many locals and visitors to Lake Salzgitter.
The fate of the boat rental is representative of the struggle for the preservation of local traditions and the understanding of the challenges that life has for everyone.
