Chinmaya Yuva Kendra (CHYKs) of Bangalore, have organised a fun-filled set of events as part of day 3 of the Chinmaya Balavihar Camp at Chokkahalli, Kolar.
The day started with the young & enthusiastic participants
gathering in attendance as they listened to Shri. Prasen Moudgal lay out the rules
for the 'Kanha Trail', a treasure hunt which encompassed the various stages in
Sri Krishna's life. The trail, which comprised of a total of 10 clues all
across the vast space in the ashram demanded a lot of skills from the
participants such as teamwork, quick thinking and a keen eye for detail.
Participants were divided into groups and each group was
allotted a colour which added spice to the contest. The clues, which were
placed at unique locations required the participants to dig a superficial
layer, climb trees and run for certain distances which added to the fun aspect
of the trail.
The challenging hunt was matched with the never-say-die attitude
of the children, who worked as a team to hunt down the clues. As part of the
trail, teams were also given a chance at gaining some quick knowledge on how to
build a tripod, how to make a catapult from a basic gel pen and the art of
water filtering from a combination of basic commodities such as sand, pebbles
and charcoal on completion of which the teams were given their next clue.
As the teams collected their final clues, they were led to the
final destination where they indulged in a fun 'Cooking without flame' session
in which the teams had a fun time preparing an assorted medley of food items
with a combination of raw vegetables, puffed rice, spices amongst others.
The session culminated with the kids reminiscing the best of
moments through the day and enjoying their master crafted food as the whole lot
in attendance walked away with smiles on their faces.
