July 21, 2017
Tokyo, Japan, 19 July 2017 -- The Annual Meeting of President and Vice President of the Japan Federation of Don Bosco Alumni, chaired by President Mr. Hiroshi Yoshida in the presence of SDB Provincial Fr. Mario Yamanouchi, was held at the Provincial House in Yotsuya, Tokyo. The representatives from all 5 Salesian School Alumni in Japan came together there.
We've decided to form a working team of younger generation past pupils nominated from each school alumnus at the board meeting scheduled in next October. The working team is going to consider the various tasks to be resolved for the development of the federation, for example, social communication, fund raising, incorporation, involvement of university student past pupils, and of course the coming 12th EAO Congress of Salesian Past Pupils in Japan.
And we’ve approved the 7 priorities of the Alumni in Japan, which will be sent to the World Federation soon.
On the 19th, the baseball team of Hyuga Gakuin in Miyazaki won the quarter final match of the prefectural elimination of the 99th Japan High School Baseball Championship. At the meeting, the participants shared the happy feeling about it with each other as the Bosconians, Past Pupil brothers. It is a wonderful fruit of the Japan Federation established in 2015.
