Youth Club in the village Chagantivaripalem

With the inspiration we have got from celebrating YOUTH DAY and overwhelming participation we have got towards that Pragathi is thinking of forming a youth club at the village. As you know we have been celebrating village birth day and youth day on the birth day of Mahatma Gandhi and Swami Vivekananda respectively. Once we are successful in forming and fulfilling the YOUTH CLUB we can form the village club with similar kind of entertainment activities as suggested by Mr. Ram Koduri to encourage the poor and ignorant people not to consume liquor. From this village there are two successful badminton players who got number of awards and mementos. They are now just playing the game as a hobby and not as a profession. If we continue helping this kind of youth we can surely see them in the national games. We would also provide some gifts to the youth who win in the competition. If we remember, sometime ago when we were studying our high school we used to have these sports and games competitions in between villages and different teams. I dont know whether the same is continuing now. But let us continue now. We can have the following as part of the youth club.

1. Pragathi would set up a sports store (non profitable) with all the important sports related products.

We can have
Meditation Centre
Badminton

Volley Ball
Basket Ball
Kabaddi
Lawn Tennis
Table Tennis
Snooker
Carrums and Cricket related products initially.

Please suggest if anything else is to be added.

2. Slowly we can take the land(1 acre like that) for lease for 10 years like and would come up with good play ground for different games(specifically indoor games).

Meanwhile we can start using whatever the play grounds we have like high school play ground.3. A Physical exercise and meditation center would be set up for the benefit of those interested to keep their health fit.

4. As you all know internet would be provided at the room in Mandal Office starting with two computers and type machines. Computer knowledge would be provided to the youth and to know the happenings in the world.

Requesting you to give your valuable suggestions and anything to add to this. Pragathi would like to do hundred percent whatever it commits to do and with all of your support and valuable suggestions.

Your suggestions would be useful to achieve this goal.

Let us hope the youth club would serve the purpose of Swami Vivekananda's vision of youth development.

Swami Vivekananda to Youth .

Supreme value of youth period is incalculable and indescribable.Youth life is the most precious life. The way in which you utilize this period will decide the nature of coming years that lie ahead of you.Your happiness, your success, your honor and your good name all depend upon the way in which you live now, in this present period. Remember this. This wonderful period of the first state of your life is related to you as the soft wet clay in the hands of the potter. Skillfully the potter gives it the right and correct shapes and forms, which he intends to give.Even so, you can wisely mould your life, your physical health and strength, in short your entire nature in any way in which you make up your mind to do.And you must do this now.
