The Association of Children of Homeland War Defenders Pakrac-Lipik is organising a trip to Vukovar for the third consecutive year to mark the 35th anniversary of the Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Vukovar, intended for residents of Lipik and Pakrac. Interested parties can register via the Association's email at udbdr.pakrac@gmail.com or by calling the Association's president, Ivan Golub, on 0917398036.
The number of bus seats is limited, making registration mandatory. Departure is scheduled from the Pakrac bus station at 05:45 on 18 November, while departure from in front of the Lipik City Administration will be organised at 05:55. The cost of the bus has been fully covered by funds from the Ministry of Croatian Veterans.
In addition to the trip to Vukovar, a dignified memorial event titled "We Run for Vukovar" will be held in the Lipik and Pakrac areas, organised by the Croatian Association of Nurses, Technicians and Other Workers in Healthcare of the Homeland War. This is a sporting and patriotic initiative through which healthcare workers wish to pay tribute to all victims, defenders and civilians who gave their lives for a free Croatia.
The Association's organising committee invites all citizens, healthcare colleagues, Croatian defenders and sports enthusiasts to join in Lipik and Pakrac. Those unable to run are welcome to come and support the participants along the route and, with dignity and thoughts of Vukovar and Škabrnja, light a candle for our heroes.
