'associations as a resource of the territory. " Against the indifference
'associations as a resource of the territory. " And 'the theme of a meeting organized by the Circolo PD Montefalcione and has had starring representatives of associations and committees operating within the territory.
The meeting, held last Thursday, is for the Democrats the first step of a project that has as ultimate goal to improve and deepen their knowledge of the territory through listening to representatives of all social groups in the country. After the associations, the youth of the PD Circle will meet entrepreneurs, merchants, parents, the elderly and young, unemployed, cassintegrati, cultural workers. The initiative seeks to obtain, at the end of a proper hearing in the territory, the largest number of information necessary, indeed essential, to define the socio-political program of the Democratic Party. This is a program that is unprecedented in our region and that the intention of popular Montefalcione, will have the distinction of being serious and realistic because of the problems derived from the analysis of our reality.
The meeting last Thursday's speakers are representatives of all groups in Montefalcione: Domenico D'Alelio Committee for the celebration S. San Antonio Lucia, Ignatius St. Bruno for the party committee Feliciano, Benjamin Fisher for the Group and Mercy Frates, Erminio Picillo and Mario Ruberto Committee for the celebration S. Cross Forest, Felice Ruggiero for the association Friends of Emilio, Lino Risk for the Pro-loco. The large turnout may be used to establish what level of interest of civil society's attitude towards the underlying traditions and aspirations. During the meeting have emerged
interesting discussion topics but, most important, has been identified the need to involve young people in events linked to religious celebrations, the center of the traditions of the country. About
young was regarded with particular interest in their participation, as protagonists, the activities of "Mercy", an association of voluntary work, especially in the health field, working in emergency services. Young people Montefalcione, through volunteering, as pointed out by the representative of "Mercy" Benjamin Fisher, also have the opportunity to participate in the initiatives of Civil Defence and, therefore, be useful in times of need and emergency.
The meeting was also highlighted the economic issue related to the organization of religious festivals that have been identified as one of the key points of culture, not only popular, local. A heritage that is the basis of local traditions and, therefore, should be preserved and, in some respects, rediscovered and preserved to be handed down. In view of this need, the participants, it seemed useful if not necessary, look to the self and the search for new sponsors and the greater commitment of time by those who collaborate in the organization of religious festivals. Through self-financing, it was proposed, could redevelop a new pedestrian path following the picturesque Via Crucis. In this regard, the Committee S. Cross the forest has invited all young people present at the meeting to consider the possibility of participating in the initiative. "We thank the club was keen to stress-PD Felice Ruggiero-to provide to the opportunity to advertise the event that's become a part of local traditions and tourist attraction by the potential not yet fully expressed. We further call upon the Secretary of the Democratic Party, Joseph Melillo, of being an intermediary between the associations and the municipal authority in order to become reality, what, when, can appear only on an ambitious project. "
The topic of discussion then turned to the problem of identifying the dates on which to organize festivals and celebrations that are part of local tradition. A very topical issue as the city government of Montefalcione is trying to organize a "billboard" to be carried out during the week, during the period of August, including the celebration of the patron saint, San Antonio. As you know, the religious festival, more than a decade, is preceded by the event called "The streets of the village", organized by the Pro-site that aims to promote culture and local traditions.
This year, however, showed the need to bring forward by one day the celebrations for St. After arrival in Montefalcione Antonio, from Brazil, a second relic of the saint. This is a real event because the organizers of the festival were able to get the relic, before returning to Padua where he was playing for a long, tight deadlines, traveling in various countries, stop for a short period Montefalcione to make it more solemn and mystical in mid-August the feast dedicated to S. Antonio.
To resolve the matter, the Circolo PD has proposed to organize the calendar of events in August, taking into account the wishes and needs citizenship which is, notoriously, very devoted to his patron saint. 'E', however, must-have suggested Melillo-operate, taking into account that the development of the territory, largely, also passes through the publicity tour that can be made possible thanks to events such as the famous "To Vie del Borgo" .
For the record must be reported to the representative of the Pro-loco, Lino Danger, UDC-related local, when they were trying to find some solution about the schedule of summer festivals, he decided to leave the meeting stating that it did not seem appropriate to address such an argument at the site of a party. The question, therefore, will be addressed in the coming days, in the community considered the institutional forum for such matters.
"The circle-PD-Melillo said was intended, on this occasion, to listen to the problems of the associations to put them in a draft program for the attention of the community and its representatives. In this context, it seems odd that the site of Pro-Montefalcione acted taking into account, so prevalent, its declared policy position. "
Another interesting proposal that emerged during the meeting after the abandonment of the classroom by Mr. Danger, the representative of the Pro Loco, is is to establish a foundation in order to involve the party committees and associations involved in the project for each year of a project by donating to citizenship.
"The meeting, says the secretary of the Circle-had, indeed, an excellent result in view of the issues and proposals emerged. It means that we are moving in the right direction. For this activity going forward. "
