Dear victor, BV is still alive and due to some reasons it is gone quiet since few months. All committee members are doing good job to unite belleans. This how the belleans picnic happened last week. We Need support and guidance from people like you. We will do our best to keep bellevision active in near future.
Well said victor castelino. When bellevision failed to organise a picnic or a outing for belleans, our young talent came up with their own ideas and arranged a great and memorable day. They are success in their first try. Well done guys. I can see in the pictures all young stars activity participating and conducting the picnic. In this picnic no uniform policy. I attended some of bellevision picnics and i observed that people who work hard they don t recognise by the organisers. The people who wearing uniform t - shirts only get d name at the end. This picnic thrown away that policy. Also I can see in the pictures FUTURE OF BELLE. My support always with you guys.
