LIFE OF HAMLET
The hamlet relies on an active community of people that always contributes to its developement and its servicing.
As once they are still in place: the figure of Mansia, spokesman of the municipality in the village; and corvée, organized days where people are dedicated to cleaning and maintenance of the village itself.
The project re-paving of the ancient village, based on replacing the asphalt with a characteristic cobbled stone, began several years ago. Thanks to the contribution of the owners of the houses and to the will of Mansia the firsth lots have already been completed and nexts are programmed.
The wood oven of the township has been rebuilt and is lit during the community festivities to allow the baking of bread and typical dishes like glôre of potato.
To permit, organize and facilitate these and other projects is born "La Flammë 'd Lâ Stîëra": an association sociocultural apolitical, nondenominational and non-profit born from the desire of the local families and vacationers to keep alive the spirit of the township Soucheres of Basses.
