A Memorable December 3.0

May 20, 2023 | Club Service, Finance | 0 comments

The Club Service Avenue and the Finance Committee of the Rotaract Club of University of Sri Jayewardenepura were getting ready for the most cheerful night of the year and had planned to light up the holiday season, which drew near. Every year, they put together enjoyable activities to boost the club’s spirit of camaraderie, strengthen the ties between the members over time, and live up to the club’s public reputation.

Despite the many challenges, “A Memorable December” did not fail to come among our Rotaractors in the year 2022 as well. Under the title “A Memorable December 3.0”, the project was held in two phases.

The first phase of the project was “Secret Santa”, a Christmas card exchange where our Rotaractors shared beautiful Christmas cards with love and warmth to spread the word of friendship. The best thing was that every participant was given another person’s name and address to send the card to, and the participants were unaware of who would send them the cards.

The second phase of the project was the Christmas party and the Grand Raffle Draw, which were held successfully on the 23rd of December 2022 from 6.00 pm onwards at Lounge 42, DHPL Building, Colombo 02, amidst fun games and melodious tunes of the extremely talented artists of “The Voice Sri Lanka”, and the fine beats of the Flair band of the University of Sri Jayewardenepura.

As the night drew nearer there were people and holiday cheer in every nook and cranny of the conference center. Moonlight filtered through the windows and was overshadowed by gleaming tinsel, sweet-sounding bells, and the sparkling star atop the Christmas tree.

The guest singers enlivened the event with their singing, and their singing was well received. Well-known performers with enticing vocals like Malik Gunasekara, Shashi Somarathna, Sagara Dilshan, Asiru Rathnayake, Ishini Thamodya, Isuru Hiran, Shemil Clinson, Sadun Mahesh, and Banuka Senavirathne were coupled by the musical performance of the Flair Band of USJ, which made this glittering night enthralling.

Also, fun games made the party more interesting. Those games made everyone very happy, and almost everyone who came to the event participated. The balloon dance took the spotlight and the harmonious melodies supplied by the band, added extra enjoyment to the game.

Later, everyone gathered for the raffle draw to try their fortune. Amidst all the applause from the audience, the organizing team was able to select four lucky winners and present them with gifts. Gifts for the winners were sponsored by “Lady Chef Cake” and “Tiana Cupcakes,” which delighted their palates and made them ecstatic.

As the official photography partner for this merry evening, Brilliance Art Photography put on a fantastic photo booth where everyone was busy posing throughout to create enduring happy memories. Nevertheless, these memories hold the gratification and happiness of that enchanting day in December.

The night came to an end with the Flair Band of USJ opening the dance floor and inviting the enthusiastic throng to dance. The last moment of the party was filled with dancing. The crowd was hesitant to leave the venue, so the nonstop music and dancing went on until almost midnight. There was Christmas magic throughout the event. The night finished with life-long lovely memories to be treasured and, of course, with the hope to attend “A Memorable December 4.0” the following year to have a great time with music, dancing, fun, and fellowship.
