Stall at RVCE

Date of event: 15th November 2009

The occasion was the cultural fest at RV College of Engineering. This year's theme was environmental awareness and we were invited to organise a stall at the college premises.

What was on display:

There were no items for sale, only for display. Posters were arranged along the sidewalls of the stall (These were borrowed from Community Health Cell). Indoor potted plants made from recycled products were also displayed. Many books and magazines on environmental themes were also arranged. Reusable bags made of cloth were also hung along with the posters.

Objective:

To interact with interested students and network. Also to showcase lifestyle change options and recommended reading material for the youth.

The experience:

It was the first time we set up an awareness stall at a college fest. With the young men and women busy taking part in and watching the events and also each other (lol), the response was meagre. Also, we realised that if attention has to be drawn, something exciting has to be arranged. Maybe next time we will include some games/videos/music and get them involved with puzzles. But it was a good learning experience on the whole.
