In a period in which the distancing is dutifully imposed by the current health situation, the large family of the city section of Hunting Federation, respecting a long tradition, he wanted with conviction to gather, near the Christmas festival, in the beautiful church of Fornaci (Bs) for the annual mass of S. Uberto. Even the year that is ending was difficult and demanding but compared to the last one there is, thanks also to the science and the treatments activated, a significant improvement in conditions even if the light glimpsed at the end of the tunnel is fading due to the new wave of the pandemic. It was therefore possible to organize the celebration of the Mass of St. Hubert to thank Our Lord for helping us in the most difficult moments, for supporting us in every moment of our life and for having offered us beautiful and indelible ones this year as well. moments in the practice of our hunting passion.
Once again, our relatives, our associates, our friends who are no longer there have been entrusted to him, remembering so many of them carried away by the rampant pandemic. Thanks went to the parish community of Fornaci (Bs), to their parish priest Don Marco Bosetti, who welcomed hunters, family members and friends with great warmth and availability. The President of the Fornaci subsection, the sectional vice president, the councilors of the municipal section, the presidents of the subsections and the town hunters were also thanked for their collaboration and presence for the occasion. After the mass, the delivery of the donation to the"Children in Braille" Association and the exchange of greetings concluded the evening.
In addition to the services for members, the city section of Hunting Federation has been operating for years with interventions aimed at restoring and protecting environmental areas in the city but also offering an annual contribution of economic support to city associations that operate in the social fabric for the good of many people. This year the contribution was donated, after the mass in the parish church of Fornaci (Bs), to the "Children in Braille" Association which since 2015 has been promoting in the city recreational-therapeutic activities designed to encourage, through artistic languages, the development of the abilities of children and young people with particular regard to those with disabilities.
One of the fundamental principles of this Association is that for which they do not want to be created "Category spaces" that is reserved for blind and visually impaired people only, but we work with a view to total openness, inviting and welcoming all children and young people who wish to participate in the proposed activities. Also because the other main objective that has mobilized the members of the Association is to educate the so-called "normal people" to diversity: if you get used from an early age to have relationships with those who are disabled person everything becomes natural and the fears and fears that often accompany the approach to the world of the “different” are overcome. Purposes and operational paths shared by the city hunters who from the bottom of their hearts thank the Association and its President Piera Sciacca for the deserving work done (Source: Hunting Federation).
