Patge reial amb la mainada de la Colla Castellera de Figueres

Un any més, el patge reial ha recollit les cartes de la mainada de la Colla Castellera de Figueres. Ha estat aquest dissabte al local de la colla, on el patge reial ha fet una aturada per recollir-les i entregar un petit obsequi als menuts de la colla. Ara a la mainada només els hi resta esperar al dia de la desfilada per fer els pilars de benvinguda i portar-se molt bé per què els reis els hi portin el que han demanat a les seves cartes.

Aquest darrer dissabte, abans de les eleccions de junta tècnica, la Colla Castellera de Figueres va realitzar un parell de construccions dins dels actes finals de la capital de la cultura catalana. A la sortida dels actes realitzats dins el teatre El Jardí la colla va fer un pilar de quatre per començar la cercavila fins davant el Museu de l'Empordà on es va fer un tres de sis.

This Saturday night at social site of the "Castellers de Figueres", a special assembly for the election of the new technique team was done. In this assembly, at the request of the board, a notary and a lawyer specialized in associations were present. The group led by Mr. Jordi Lozano, who has been "cap de colla" last season was the only one in the election. The voting results were 90 votes for and 4 blank votes. Thus the technical team for the next season is constituted by Mr. Jordi Lozano as "cap de colla", Sonia Lozano as "cap de tronc", Robert Carbonell as "cap de pinya" and Eva and Laura Riera as "caps de mainada". Mr. Jordi Lozano explained the goals for next year. At the request of the attendees it was read a report written by the lawyer regarding the recent election of the administrative board and written letters by a group, this report says the election process was correct. At the turn of questions and answers there was no request made to this topic then the assembly was finished. The only incident during the meeting was when a large group of members lifted with a shirt to support the current board.

The next action of the Castellers de Figueres will be the 5th of January.
