the toys inside the city hall

Every year there is a children's toy exchange market.
Kids get points at the start and when they join the little parade being dressed up, they get extra points.
These points they can use to get toys other kids are "selling".
Or they can get a balloon or do some "fishing" for a point.
At the very end of the market the best dressed get a price, then the most original stand gets a price and then the "best seller" (not to be mistaking by "selling" the most but by who their presentation).
Then all the other kids accordingly to age can come in the big city hall and chose toys accordingly to the points they won.

This one is for a recycling shop.
You can bring your useless things or you can call them and they pick them up.
They see what is still possible to be resold and you can go then into their shop and buy all these second hand stuf.
There for it is called Opnieuw and Co
wich means " (use it) Again and Co"

KoMo feesten is the festival weekend, organised by the local shop owners.
Not that much to see, except a lot of people you can sozialise with.
A good day to have a drink.
