A Memorable December 2.0

Mar 31, 2022 | Club Service | 0 comments

With the dawn of the Christmas season, we Rotaractors were looking forward to heartfelt lights on what the Club Service Avenue of the Rotaract Club of University of Sri Jayewardenepura was up to light up this Christmas. Each year they organize fun-filled events to enhance the camaraderie of the members of the club and to strengthen the bonds in the long run between the club members while adding a dash of color to the club’s public image.

This year ‘A Memorable December 2.0′ organized by the Club Service Avenue in collaboration with the Finance Committee, was highlighted as a truly memorable one with two phases that were purely hyped up by the Christmas season. 

After all, there’s nothing like a classic Christmas card to spread the holiday joy, especially when it comes with a personalized, handmade Christmas card. Have you ever been surprised by a friend who knows you well or has never seen you? “Secret Santa” the first phase of the project, gave our Rotaractors a splendid opportunity to embrace a novel experience. All Rotaractors were invited to join in this event. This became the ideal opportunity to find new friends and surprise each other by gifting a creative and thoughtful Christmas card to disperse the love and warmth of the Yuletide season. 

The second phase of the project, the Christmas Party featuring the Grand Christmas Raffle Draw came along where each and everyone got the chance to immerse themselves in the Christmas season. This was very good news to the Rotaractors who spent lockdowns in monotony for more than two years due to the pandemic. The organizing committee had to go the extra mile to make this grand Christmas party a success given the very short period of time.

 

With the dawn of the day of the party, everybody was all hyped up and filled with excitement to make their grand entrance at this glamorous evening. By the time the clock struck 6 in the evening, every nook and corner of the auditorium began to get occupied with people along with Christmas cheer. Shiny tinsels, sweet-sounded bells and the glistening star on top of the Christmas tree, outshone the moonlight peeping through the windows of the auditorium.

The beats of JAMMY accompanied the Christmas cheer and made this shiny night a captivating one indeed. Fun games made it even more interesting and far away from boring. Everyone enjoyed a fun game of passing Santa’s hat to each other. The harmonious melodies of JAMMY were able to soften everyone’s hearts with the feeling of Christmas. 

The invited guest performers made their way on to the spotlight of the auditorium making the crowd cheer with happiness. Renowned artists such as Suneera Sumanga, Ashka Kulathunga, Hashen Dulanjana, Achinthya Sahan, Siyumini Opayangi and Siyum Sandeep made the night an appealing one with their melodious voices. 

The atmosphere was filled with Christmas cheer with the soothing vocals of our own talented Rotaractors. Not only them but also a tuneful performance by the Flair Club of University of Sri Jayewardenepura boosted up the energy level of the crowd. 

With the Raffle Draw, everyone gathered to try their luck. The organizing committee was able to choose three lucky winners and give gifts to them amidst all the cheering from the crowd. Not to mention the most indulging food and beverages that satisfied the taste buds of the crowd which made them over the moon happy. 

‘J’pura Flames’ being the Official Photography Partner of this Christmas-y night, put on an amazing photo booth where everyone was busy posing throughout to make lasting joyous memories. Christmas Party featuring the Grand Christmas Raffle Draw was indeed a memorable night where most of the Former Presidents and Alumni of our Club were reunited.

The night concluded opening up the dancing floor where JAMMY invited the energetic crowd to dance. The endless music with dancing continued till almost midnight as the crowd was ever so reluctant to leave the premises. However, it should be noted that all events scheduled were done according to the healthcare guidelines. After having a great time with music, dancing, fun, and fellowship, the night ended with life-long beautiful memories to be cherished and of course with a hope to join with “A Memorable December 3.0” in the following year.
