"From the construction of the picnic area, there has been a desire to also provide this location with a water pump for watering horses.

Thanks to a subsidy from the municipality of Hof van Twente (ZEB spatial quality project) and the free provision of a water pump by VRM B.V. from Apeldoorn (www.vrm.nl) that has now become possible.

It is a hand pump that also meets the requirements set as described in the Commodities Act for Playground Equipment. So, in addition to watering horses, it can also be used as a playground for children.
The version is maintenance-free and, due to a special construction, can also be used in the winter period. Has a simple operation and is "bung-proof".
Volunteers have installed a brick drinking trough, so that the whole fits into the landscape."
