Improving Our Community Center - Las Tumbas

Hey hey Bloomers !

If you don't know anything about this Community Center in Las Tumbas, read my previous reports ;)

This is a long process and there is so much to do there! And so far just few people are helping, I am doing all what I can to bring more people in, and remind all my friend of the importance of the "Center".

It is something new for most of us, to relate to a community center, as in our societies this is not a common thing. In villages back in the time i m sure that use to me more present, and for indigenous tribes, i guess that was the main place...

To me it is very clear that it is the center piece of the "community puzzle". That is our foundation.

So many people in our area come with great intention to make the new world happen and start communities and alternative projects, yet almost none so far see what are the structures that are already existing in our villages, and the potential they have.

These structures need help, they need community !

So here we are, activating our Local Community Center, Inviting more participation, sharing and talking about it.

And on the ground :

That storage was a mess for many years, I removed everything, made more shelves, closed the top part, and cover the door for the dust not to enter.

Now that it is well organized, there is a small sign that says : "Keep it organized Always."

I fixed the sinks with silicon, and bought 3 adaptors for the water not to splash everywhere every time we open it :

From materials that I recycled we made new gates, we still need to paint them and install them. They will be placed on the fence all around the soccer field.

we ordered combination lockers online to make our system more efficient, having only keys its not always easy when people want the salon to rent and need to come prepare it, and later clean it. With the comity we made a new protocol for sharing the code and changing it when necessary :

And the last thing in this period of time, I made the flyer to promote the soccer games that will be happening soon in July 06, as well as printing signs and setting them up in the salon for people to maintain the salon clean and not leave or burn trash.
