When the Eagles reached Wada after a long drive, they were amazed at the amount of greenery that could be seen all around. What a sight it was to see. Throughout the trip the Eagles had opportunities to learn about nature through birding trails and a visit to a local Gaushala. After the experience in Wada, the Eagles have learned about local art forms such as Warli art and background information about that art. A traditional Maharashtrian Warli artist came and talked about the ancient art form. The Eagles have also learned traditional local craft through various forms such as bamboo basket weaving and a visit to Mr. Nitin Borse’s house, a Warli craftsman to learn about how Mr. Borse can showcase local talent and revive the dying art forms through his craft. He makes handcrafted artworks and musical instruments like a Tarpa, the traditional instrument of the Warli. The Eagles competed in jungle cooking, and performed service as action at a local school, by teaching outdoor games or songs in English. Overall, every individual Eagle has had an experience which they can learn and gain from in this memorable trip.
