First Year Anniversary Celebration


Aazraya celebrated its first birthday on February 21st, 2010. The day was awesome for all members who attended it. For first time in our day, our Chairman reported at Tambaram railway station before all of them. By morning 9 around 30 members moved to New Life. The day with fun and jubilation are waiting ahead of us.


Myself and Velusamy waited in railway station for picking up few more members. We were surprised to see the first team is waiting for us at Sri Krishna Engg college. From there we left to New Life hoping the day to be unforgettable for all our members. I was happy to see all of them in fully charged and waiting to rock the show. All of us reached New Life by 11.


By the time we reached New life, Saradha Sevashram kids reached New Life.The kids of new life were all dressed in new cute costumes and the mood of the children was really contagious that we instantly started on the roll. The kids of new life were already practicing yoga in full swing along with the kids of Saradha Sevashram. It was colorful show to watch kids practicing yoga. As usual all kids started to run towards us in enjoy and happiness. All preparation went in right way. Mala akka and Raji allocated the provisions to both homes by list given by them. I guess Malar and group had a great walk in hot sun. Van went little lately to pick up them. Jaggy, Dany 1&2, Malar joined us by noon. Hope they enjoyed some photo section on the way to New Life.


Srividya akka was Master of Ceremony,as all of us know, how she was good at Tamil. I can see the girls helping the kids with the makeup and costumes and kids running behind Reddy akka to see them dressed in a beautiful costume.

All those scenes there remembered me, my school annual day celebrations. By the time, singing and Yoga section were going on upstairs. To be frank Saradha Sevashram kids rocked the whole show with their special talents. Vinod had a tough time in controlling those kids and to keep them silent. The voice of those kids made all our members to assemble in Kalai Kovil.

It was already afternoon , lunch bell started to ring in every stomach. Briyani smell pulled all of us to the dining hall. Our Aazraya members made prior arrangement for those kids to have a delicious lunch. As usual we had a good lunch with those those kids. Soon after lunch our CM asked all of them to assemble in Kalai Kovil as it already time to start a program.

Our Chief guest are already made their present on time and eagerly waiting for start of the program. Srividya akka beautifully put the crowd to rest and what an awesome compiring she had rendered. Program went as planned. I guess Vinod gave out the emotional speech and gave wonderful intro about all members over there. But for most of us it was great Mokai given by him. Sindhuja did a great job by preparing the annual report and it  was read out sweetly by Keerthi. Dhilip, Kams & Jamuna joined as by afternoon. they really missed out first half. Here i have to mention few words about them. All three attend the event putting away their health problems. 

Kids went to cloud 9 when they received their prices which they won. I still remember one thing. Ramana cried and followed me asking for the prize, this shows how kids are to get the prizes. I personally felt like celebrating my first birthday. Birthday song sang by those kids was cho sweet.


As sun rays passes through the Kalai Kovil, our architect Dany took some awesome snaps. This photo found the place in my all time favorite collection. 
Group photos are always part of our celebration. A number of snaps has been taken all corner of New Life.
 At end of the day it turned out to be an unforgettable day in my life. Learnt lot regrading managing events. Lets keep rocking by helping the needy one.

 Comments are always welcome.
