According to Tang, the organizer of the fitness dance team and the neighborhood committee of Jinghe Street, before the establishment of the dance team, residents either stayed at home to watch TV at night or got together to chat and play cards, and life seemed extremely monotonous. In July 2004, Tang, who loves literature and art, saw the residents' fitness dance in Hongzhou Avenue and Aizhong Square in Guang 'an City, and also sprouted the idea of organizing a fitness dance team in Jinghe Street. After returning to the town, Tang reported his ideas to the town party Committee and government, and was encouraged and supported by the main leaders. The government also funded 1.200 yuan to help buy DVD players, stereos and other equipment, and provided a venue of more than 200 square meters for the newly-built street fitness dance team. You Mingguang, a member of the street branch, provides the TV set at home to the fitness dance team for free every night.
The establishment of residents' leisure fitness dance has brought vigor and vitality to the nightlife of the town, and more than 100 residents come to participate every night. In order to let the team members learn to dance new dances in time, "coach" Tang insisted on learning new dances from TV first, and then leading the team members to dance together. It is understood that fitness dancers can learn a new dance every half a month. So far, they have been able to dance over 50 dances.
Fitness dance not only enriches the cultural life of the town, but also benefits the residents. Huang is a resident of Changzhen. He used to go out to play mahjong at night, but he got sick again last year. After the operation, the doctor told her to strengthen outdoor exercise, and Huang He joined the fitness dance team. Since then, she has never sat at a poker table at night. After a period of exercise, her body has improved and her mood is getting happier! Li Yu 'an, a 62-year-old resident of Changzhen, suffers from diseases such as hypertension and hyperosteogeny. Since taking part in fitness dance in 2004, fitness dance has become a good medicine for her treatment. Now that my blood pressure has dropped, I feel particularly relaxed when I walk. Today, Li Yu 'an told everyone that fitness dancing broadened his horizons, allowed more people to communicate with each other and enriched his later life.
In the fitness dance team, there are not only middle-aged and elderly people, but also many children around 10 years old. Li Junhong, a fifth-grade student in Jinghe Primary School, takes part in fitness dance on time every night. Talking about the benefits brought to him, Xiao Junhong said happily that fitness dancing not only enhanced his physique, but also made him more energetic in his study. It is understood that since joining this activity in 2004, Xiao's academic performance has been ranked first in the same grade in the whole school. Tongdao Band was founded on May 22nd this year, with seven members, all of whom are music-loving teachers in Jinghe Primary School. "We have many holidays. Everyone thinks, why not use the holidays to perform cultural programs for the villagers, which not only enriches the cultural life of the masses, but also gives themselves an opportunity to exercise and display their talents!" When talking about the original intention of forming a band, the founder Wang Jianhua said this. He also told the author that it was named "Hometown Band" because the band served the villagers, and the name made people feel cordial and had a local flavor.
The band was formed. Where did the musical instrument come from? In addition to their own musical instruments at home, the team members also paid out their own money 1.500 yuan, and collected 1.0500 yuan to buy back electronic organ, drum, violin, brass trumpet and stereo. It is understood that the seven members of the band are all-rounders, and everyone can basically play keyboard, drum set and orchestra skillfully. In many cases, members just sing a song, become recording engineers, just dance and sit in front of the electronic piano ... members cooperate with each other and the whole band is full of vitality.
The first performance of the hometown band was on the sixth day after its establishment. The band deliberately chose a lucky day and set up a simple performance stage in the most prosperous and spacious new street in the town, putting all the band's "possessions" on it. When the host Li's magnetic voice sounded on the stage, the convenience of the performance was surrounded by villagers three floors away. The warm atmosphere and the flood of applause deeply touched the hearts of every fellow band member. They devoted themselves to the performance and dedicated beautiful melodies, wonderful dances and hilarious sketches to the villagers. The villagers were deeply intoxicated and their enthusiasm was high. They expressed their simple and warm feelings with sound and applause, and asked the band to perform more programs, so that the program originally planned to perform only one hour had to be extended to more than one and a half hours.
After the news that the band of fellow villagers performed for the masses came out, the villagers asked whether they could go deep into the farmhouse dam and send wonderful cultural programs to the villagers. The team members worked hard to meet the wishes of the villagers and sent a rich cultural feast to the villagers.
In late June, Chen Lin, secretary of the branch of Qihu Village in Jinghe Town, and the villagers came to the town with a big truck 10, and specially invited the fellow band to perform cultural programs for the villagers. Without saying anything, the deeply moved band members loaded all their "possessions" into the car and came to the remote Tiger Riding Village. As soon as the bus entered the village, all the villagers waiting at the head of the village came to help move things and set up the stage. During the two-hour performance, crosstalk, sketches, dances and songs immersed the whole village in a festive atmosphere. The old people and children in the village watched with relish, while the young people took the initiative to shoulder the heavy responsibility of maintaining order. After the performance, the villagers were reluctant to leave the team members for a long time, and repeatedly asked them to perform more in the countryside in the future.
"I didn't expect that the villagers' demand for cultural life was so eager and so strong! "The team members were deeply touched and strengthened their confidence and determination to dedicate all their studies to the villagers. It is reported that although the band was only established for more than four months, at present, the members have performed nearly 10 performances for the villagers on weekends and every day, with nearly 10,000 viewers.
"Will the high cost of band performance bring you pressure and difficulties?" In the face of the author's question, Wang Jianhua smiled lightly: "We also thought about this when we were founded, such as purchasing equipment and maintenance, but since we were established to enrich the cultural life of the masses, it is really the most important to think about the needs of the masses. Our difficulties are nothing! " Moreover, while doing their jobs well, fellow band members often get together to create some educational and policy-oriented literary works and local cultural programs with local flavor, so that villagers can enjoy fresh performances every time.
"With the hometown band, our cultural life is more exciting and everyone's life is more interesting!" Xiao Wenguang, a resident of Jinghe Street, praised this. No, recently, Wang Jianhua is discussing the Mid-Autumn Festival performances with Du Xiaogang, vice mayor in charge of culture in Jinghe Town, and Chen Bo, the stationmaster of the cultural station. 2010May 16, residents of the old street in Jingxisi Community, Jinghe Town, Guang 'an District are actively demolishing their houses. Resident Zhou is full of smiles. "The government understands our people and attracts owners to concentrate on building new houses for us. We calculated that it was worthwhile and took the initiative to tear down the old house. "
There are 40 households in the old street of Jingxi Fourth Community. Most of the houses are bucket structures built in the 1960s. Due to years of disrepair, most of them are dilapidated. Residents have a desire for reform, but no one has taken the lead, and the government has tried and failed. In March this year, urban and rural environmental improvement started, and the old street became a place of disharmony. The party and government in Jinghe Town decided to take the old street reconstruction as a livelihood project, and specially sent a metre-level leading department to take charge of the old street reconstruction. A number of schemes were formulated for comparison and selection, and a hearing attended by 40 households was held to solicit opinions extensively, and then it was decided to transform the shanty towns in the whole town by means of joint households. Carefully select truly powerful owners for residents to develop. "This mode of introducing the participation of owners and market town residents has solved the problems of demolition and resettlement, single-family renovation and government funds shortage in the initial stage of market town construction." Li, secretary of the Party Committee of Jinghe Town, said.
It is understood that the renovation owner will invest180,000 yuan, with a renovation area of 6,000 square meters and a development area of 25,000 square meters. It is expected that the renovation will be fully launched in June. "At present, we have also invested 250,000 yuan to start the renovation project of sidewalks and green belts in the town. In order to expand the urban area, we guided 270 members of Sun Longyi Society to invest 300,000 yuan to build a bridge 40 meters long and 8 meters wide. " Li said to him.
