RE:

Informe Narrativo (enero 1983)

FECHA:

31 de enero de 1983

Durante el mes de enero hemos alcanzado implementar las siguientes actividades para el logro de nuestras metas y objetivos; 1~

Equip-os de Baloncesto Masculino: Debido al gran numero de participantes dentro del equipo de Baloncesto Masculino he decidido hacer dos diviciones de equipos y edades. Un primer equipo de 14-16 años y un segundo equipo de 17-21 anos, se han formado. Durante este mes hemos llevado a cabo un total de 9 practicas. El primer equipo (14-l6) Comenz6 su particiación en la liga Boricua, auspiciada por Sociedad Latina, Inc, este pasado Sabado, 29 de enero, perdiendo el primer juego de la serie frente al equipo juvenil que auspicia Inquilinos Boricuas En Acción. Los resultados finales fueron 35 a 52. Victor Figueroa actualmente esta ofreciendo sus servicios -voluntarios como "Coach" del equipo, debido a que William Ubiñas no ha regresado a las prácticas .. Este próximo Sábado, 5 de febrero, se hará una ceremonia de inauguración para los equipos que participaran en la liga. Dicha inauguración sera celebrada en las facilidades del Tobin Gyrn. Esperamos que los uniformes que se ordenaron en Hyde Park Sports esten listos antes de esta fecha.

2.

Equipo De Volleyball Femenino: Ha sido muy dif{cil para mí, conseguir una liga de volleyball femenino en la cual nuestra jovencitas puedan participar. Por otro lado, éstas se muestran muy animadas en seguir practicando en las facilidades de la Madison. Durante este mes hemos llevado a cabo 9 nracticas con la participación de 13 jovencitas entre las edade~ de 13-19 anos. Esperamos poder tener éxito en la búsqueda de una liga.

3.

Drama De Los Tres Reyes: La presentación de un pequeñ'o drama, representado por los j oven"es que participan en el Componente de Recreación, durante la Fiesta de Reyes de Alianza, ha tenido gran aceptación. Tanto el personal de Alianza, como los "propios jóvenes que participaran, se han mostrado muy interesados en que actividades de esta índole se continuen realizando.Aunque la organización de un grupo de drama no estaba incluido en nuestras actividades, me gustar(a que en el Futuro pudieramos incluirlo y ponerlo bajo nuestra meta de desarrollq de liderato.

4.

Paseos: Durante este mes ha sido muy difícil continuar con los paseos debido a una serie de factores que nos han impedido realizarlos Entre estos factores podemos mencionar la falta de tiempo y las condiciones climáticas. Espero que en el próximo mes podamos continuar llevando a cabo estos paseos recreacionales.

5.

Actividades de Recaudación de Fondos: Teniendo en cuenta que nuestros gastos aumentaran relativamente durante el próximo mes, debido a los gastos que incurre el equipo de Baloncesto, he programado un "Disco Party" para el viernes, 25 de Febrero, de 8PH-2AM. Espero que con las ganancias podamos cubrir el costo de los uniformes($150.00) y acumular algun dinero en la cuenta para los gastos de trofeos.

6.

Festlval de Jovenes: Actualmente estoy en el proceso de organlzar el Comit€ Organizador del Festival de Jóvenes. Dicho comité será formado de miembros de nuestra comunidad y empleados de la agencia. Durante este mes envié algunas misivas a diferentes personas solicitando su apoyo y participación en el comité. Entre las personas que han mostrado inter~s y han dado compromiso de participar, se encuentra el Sr. Hector Miranda, ex director del Concilio Hispano de Cambridge y actual director del Departamento de Personal de Hospital de Mattapan. Estoy programando una reunión para fines del mes de Febrero.

7.

Centro de J~venes: El Centro se ha mantenido abierto dUFante el mes de enero, de lunes a jueves en un horario de 3:00-5:30PM. Actualmente contamos con 10 miembros entre las edades de 7 a 11 años.

8.

Programa Mariana Bracetti: Durante el mes de enero mi participación con el Programa Mariana Bracetti ha sido mayor debido a la ausencia de Osvaldo Vazquez. Los lunes y jueves he acompañado a Heriberto Cruz y Rosette Flores en sus acostumbrados paseos. sirviendoles de chofer ~ ayudandole con los niños del programa.

Durante el mes de febrero he dedicado varias horas de mi trabajo en la plan i ficación y definición de las actividades para el programa del verano. Esto ha resultado sumamente dificil, dado a la naturaleza del programa y la anexion del programa Voc-Ed. Espero finalizar con esta tar e a para el primero de marzo. En. relaci~n a las actividades de recaudacio'n de fondos, te que la actividad que estaba programada para esta noche, ha sido pospuesta para el próximo viernes, 4 de marzo, el motivo principal para cancelar esta actividad, ha sido el resultado en la poca venta de boletos y, por otro lado, la competencia de bailes a celebr arse esta noche. En la busqueda de fondos, he continuado la comun : caci6n con diferentes comerciantes de la ciudad, esperando su auspic io a nuestros equipos deportivos.

~ informare

Las actividades realizadas por el componente durante este mes han sido las siguientes: a. Practicas:Se ha llevado a cabo 8 practicas con los equipos de ba,loncesto y volleyball. b. Juegos: Se ha jugado un total de cuatro juegos, dos de estos se han ·ganado y dos se han perdido.

Actualmente nuestro equipo de baloncesto se encuentra en la tercera posici6n de la liga "Bori~ua" que auspicia Sociedad Latina, Inc. En cuanto al equipo de volleyball concierne, pero solamente estoy haciendo los arreglos necesarios para participar en el torneo de la ciudad de lowell, dicho torneo se celebrara el 6 de marzo. El centro se ha mantenido habierto, pero solamente los ninos del Programa Mariana Bracetti han usado las facilidades. Los paseos no se han podido realizar por los motivos que te informe en el Informe Nar~ativo del mes de enero. Si tienes alguna pregunta en relacion este informe, comunicarte conmigo.
