Welcome Back and Upkar Event 2017-18

Dear Members,
We take the opportunity of welcoming the Upkar members from their vacations and hope everyone enjoyed their holidays. Whilst we are gearing up for the new session to begin, we hereby invite nominations from interested members to join the Executive committee. Please send your nominations for EC to upkarpost@yahoo.com or upkarpost@gmail.com at the earliest. Last date of receiving the nomination is 15th October 2017.
We plan to hold the following events during the forthcoming year –
1) October 27, 2017 – Diwali & AGM – Whilst we believe the AGM shall be held in September, since Diwali is following in October, it was decided to collaborate the 2 events. An official mailer on Diwali event will be sent shortly, however we request you to block your dates for October 27, 2017 in the evening for the event.
2) December 2017 – Upkar Box cricket league – After the stupendous success and repeated demands from our members, we are scheduled to hold the cricket league in the similar fashion as held earlier in December owing to a favorable weather.
3) January 2018 – Upkar Sports Day & picnic – The new calendar year shall witness the annual family picnic wherein the respective date shall be finalized later.
4) March 2018 – Upkar Holi – We shall hold the flagship event on the weekend falling close to the auspicious day bringing all the members together to enjoy the festival of colors.
5) Drawing Competition (for Kids)/Upkar Talent Show.
We also wish to bring to your kind notice that the in the current environment we are witnessing an increase in expenses in carrying out any event as expenses pertaining to food, venue, decoration etc have moved up significantly in the last 2 years. However, we have decided to continue with KD 25/- renewal fee for this year. As you are aware we run the association on members contribution and sponsorship. Therefore, we request all the members to come upfront to renew the memberships timely and also request you to arrange for sponsorship from your sources; this shall enable us to continue the improvement in the quality of the events and have more memorable programs for the Upkar family.
We also encourage members to provide us innovative ideas for more different community events, so that we can increase members participation, please send your ideas, feedback and complaints to upkarpost@yahoo.com.
We look forward to an active involvement from all the members in order to support us to have yet another fun filled year with our extended family members.
Best Regards,

UPKAR EC
