Next month, it was decided that the community center would hold a study bus tour for learning the town’s history.
、。
Aya, as a volunteer, was asked to be the person in charge of making the booklet to hand out to participants.
、。
In this course, the plan is to go around an old bridge, the museum, and the remains of warehouses along the river.
、。
Because among the people who will participate there are also many people coming for the first time, we must write the meeting place and time in an easy-to-understand way.
。
Aya first had the person in charge, Ms. Sato, show her last year’s booklet.
、、。
However, on that paper there was too much explanation, and she could not quickly understand what was important.
「」。
Ms. Sato also said, “Last time there were comments saying the letters were small and hard to read.”
、。
So the two decided that this time they would divide the information into three parts and arrange it.
、、。
The first part was things necessary before departure, the second was cautions during the tour, and the third was the contact information for the return.
、。
Aya wrote the date in large letters on the cover and put in a map of the meeting place under it.
。
On the map, she also briefly added how to walk from the plaza in front of the station to the community center.
、。
Because there would also be elderly participants, they chose a route where they would not have to go through a steep slope.
、。
On the next page, she briefly put together the contents of the guidance that can be heard in the bus.
、、。
However, because she thought that with explanation alone it was hard to connect it with the scenery, she decided to place two photos as well.
、。
Those photos were sent by a person at the museum, and she attached a short explanatory note underneath.
「、」。
Ms. Sato said, “Because it might turn rainy, it would be better to write in umbrellas and easy-to-walk-in shoes too.”
、。
Hearing that advice, Aya newly made a section for things to bring.
、、。
In addition, for the time when someone might feel sick on the way, she also put in a contact number in bold type.
、、。
When she tried printing it, because the lower right on the back side was a little empty, she put in a small picture of the town’s flower.
、。
As a result, the overall appearance became softer, and it became a feeling that was easy for participants too to feel familiar with.
、、。
After it was completed, when the two read it out loud, the order of the explanations was natural too.
「」。
Ms. Sato praised it, saying, “If it is like this, even first-time people seem able to participate with peace of mind.”
、、。
Aya realized that a booklet not only arranges information, but also has the role of reducing people’s anxiety.
、、。
On the day before distribution, they arranged the printed papers by number of people and put them into envelopes.
、、。
On the day itself, seeing the people who received the booklet at reception open it right away made Aya happy.
