Vote of Thanks from the President

Hello Everyone,
Thanks for coming together as a community and celebrating Ganesh Chathurthi. The Ganesh puja, the abhisheka, followed by the chanting was serene. The event went very well and pretty close to schedule. Thanks to all the volunteers for helping out with several parts of the arrangements. It is very nice to see a group of people complementing and executing the task at hand.

We indeed had the honor of having Dr. Channabasappa (a great devotee of Sree Sree Sivakumara Swamiji of Siddaganga Math Tumkur) join us. He spoke about Swamiji and his mission to collect some money for the Matt.
Donation can be made and sent to VSNA-TX. While Kalyan and I gather more information on issuing a receipt from VSNA for the donation amount.

Lastly, would like to mention about few families that were unable to attend... we missed you at the event. In future, it will be nice if the families let us know the change in head count. We understand there is always some last minute changes. Thanks for your support.

Hope to see you all next month for Fall outing. Stay tuned for details...

Regards
VSNA-TX Committee
