NASHIK, OCT 22, 2018: The final training programme for the animators of the Boscoree came to an end at Divyadaan, Nashik on October 21. Father Savio Silveira brought the event to a close with as emphatic a message as he delivered at the beginning of the programme. He invited all the participants to keep Boscoree on their mind and to find time to plan, develop, and build on all that they had learnt over the last two days.
The programme aimed at brushing up the skills acquired at previous training sessions as well as clarifying doubts, roles, and responsibilities of all those in charge of various aspects of the camp. The participants were grateful since it offered them an opportunity to become familiar with the members of their group and also gave them time to plan things together.
A good part of the morning was spent going over the Boscoree schedule in groups, planning and delegating responsibilities. After lunch, the caterer arrived to demonstrate exactly how food will be served and how the students ought to be guided once they had finished eating. A number of suggestions were made and the caterer took note of it all.
The final session before departure was an open forum where the participants were given time to raise doubts and make suggestions to the various committee heads who were present and who would then help them in whatever way they could. After sharing a hot cup of tea and some snacks, the group dispersed to their respective locations fired with enthusiasm to carry forward the critical task of planning and preparing for the Boscoree.
