loads of anxiety, emotion and a great desire to get involved, the destination base Scouts of Pompeii, where he held a meeting area for high squadrons.
This meeting will be the first obstacle to overcome in order to achieve our goal.
There will be a race, and eventually the company most votes will be the winner and we will If we move on to regional competition.
After eating the delicious croissants with nutella, we climb into cars that would accompany us to the destination.
With us we brought the material to set up the stand, that we have planned throughout the week. A huge green meadow
unfolding before our eyes when we walk down from the car into the base scout.
Weather: promises sun all day!
We look around, there are a number of scout groups in the area and bring everyone on the face and eyes in our own enthusiasm.
9:30 am
A whistle that makes us all hasten the clearing green, facing the flag hoisting.
local leaders welcome us and introduce us to the top of lle activities with the flag-raising ceremony and a very funny skit that has awakened from the grave
BP's announcement that we had to begin the preparation of the stands and the our brain goes crazy with joy.
We settle into a corner, beneath two trees that provide shade and give us a lot to do immediately. We realized
information boards, a giant billboard that read in large characters rather the entire prayer, prints of various e-mails sent to foreign groups, the Vatican and the various men who have helped us. We
also brought a laptop with speakers to show our blog on the Internet. Finally
to embellish all was the peace flag waving gay between the two trees, the various drawn on cardboard doves fluttering here and there and the many colorful balloons on which we had written phrases taken from our prayer.
written gave a great welcome to our stand "Iera pray for peace."
We have been quick to assemble, we have collaborated ato tan little income and above the previous week we had committed to get to this day with a stand that had still put more emphasis in our company.
11:00 am Official start of the visit the various stands and evaluation of the various companies.
Each squadron had to give a high score that ranged from 1 to
put on our cute hats bought for the occasion, we were divided into two groups: I
, Elena, Mauro, John and Nicola would have given the vote to others, first.
Raffaella, Claudia, Simone and Cate would have presented to visitors to our stand and our company, and then reverse roles. The other high
squadrons had made their stand nice and even enterprises as they were, but we know that we must believe in yourself always.
Our booth seemed to be the most popular and we were always ready to explain and illustrate the various phases of our business, we talked a bit 'all, sharing the stage and adding details that maybe someone could escape.
The smile on his face and everyone's happiness, pride etched in the looks department leaders, who saw realized what we had always driven to do:
engage enthusiastically get into the game believing in their potential, are fondest memory of this day, as is also the most awaited moment of the day.
After the celebration of Mass, and after eating lunch bag and be relaxed for a while 'we are once again all square in the final verdict.
16:00 pm We have various banks to ease a little 'tension of the moment and then finally:
the head of the area recalls the silence and take the word and my legs started shaking and I shook Claudia's hand tightly, smiling.
The words seemed to come as a distant echo, like a sound you feel and you can not hear.
"Thank you all for this beautiful day and the first to announce the squad that was ranked high in third place ... ... ... ....
Screams, cheers ... ... ... ... .... we are not the third place.
The stomach twists, a slight smile comes timidly on his face.
"is ranked in second place ... ... ... ... ....
smiles, hugs, applause ... ... ... ... .... we are not runners.
The tension reached my stomach, my brain and makes close my eyes.
A silence, the silence that heralds inhuman always a big explosion.
"the first place is the high squadron of Stabia1 !!!!!!!!!!!".
not remember exactly what I did, I only remember that he opened his eyes and found myself in the middle of a party, hugs and screams of joy that I came each side in which I turned around.
was not happiness, but pure happiness, that happiness so strong as to completely overwhelm you, of obscuring the mind and makes you smile dramatically.
Trying not to slide, we went to collect the prize for the top finishers, with a picture frame as a memento of the event.
I have no words ... ... well ... words can not ... because see past the first hurdle, the first test of our long journey has no words to be described.
You should only have looked at our eyes to truly understand how we felt.
That great man had said
But he also added "if the reward comes good for you !!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!".

THE DREAM GOES ON !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fiesta!!
We have just returned from an activity area at Pompeii, all the high-sq. Faito area that has ruled our company the best in our area, but we are not tired at all, indeed, but we are still full of enthusiasm that we decided in mutual agreement to advance the testing and fiesta. Yes, in fact the same day, Sunday, we met again after a shower, a nap, to make the verification of the enterprise. It was not a very long time since we had already occurs previously made to insert it into the final report to be sent to patrol the national, so we just talk about the experience in the morning and the great satisfaction and enthusiasm for the victory and as usual the girls have talked all the time boys present them in Pompeii. At the end of this time we all went to a pizzeria for the fiesta that has really put an end to this enterprise.
