Nostalgia - 2009, "You spread the colors" - A very big thank you to all of you

Dear All,

This is probably the last mail from the Alumni Committee regarding Nostalgia '09. And it also marks the end of an event which was truly fabulous to state the least. The event garnered praises from the alumni as well as the college authorities and our batch mates. The efforts and the sleepless nights spent by the most of you have finally paid off.

 The Alumni Committee wishes to thank each and every one of you who made Nostalgia '09 a memorable event. We wouldn't have been able to pull off this event without the support and contribution of all those who participated in its making. Congratulations to all of you!!

We would like to acknowledge the efforts put in by a certain few. So here it goes:

The decorations team: The hard work you all put in cannot be expressed in words. You all spent days and nights planning and implementing the entire display. And your hardwork was indeed noticed and appreciated by the alumni. 

We would like to thank our creative minds Vidhisha Shah, Kshama Singhania, Vaibhavi Damania, Priyaj Shah, Megha Saraf, Hersh Lulla, Shweta Goyal without whom all the beautiful decorations wouldn't have conceptualized. 

We would specially like to thank our creative heads- Jinesh Vasa, Amish Dalal, Jigar Dharamshi and Nidhi Jain  for ensuring that the entire process goes on smoothly. They have worked as an excellent co-ordinators between the alumni committee and the decorations team. Whether it was co-ordinating with the ALCOM for materials or delegating tasks to the juniors we knew that the job was given in responsible hands.

Also, it goes without saying that the creative team would have been incomplete without the support of a host of juniors who volunteered and helped their seniors out with the decorations even if it meant bunking lectures and staying back late in the nights. With you all around we are rest assured that we have nothing to worry about Nostalgia '10 ;).Out of those who came in regularly were Nayan, Khushboo...

In addition, special praise for all the committee members who worked for the decor of their own rooms to ensure that the interiors of SIMSR look as beautiful as the well decorated campus.

The Banners and the Videos team: Jigar for working diligently on the videos namely the SIMSR movie which was applauded by one and all present in the auditorium. Evellyn for helping us make the phenomenal teasers. You guys spent endless hours on your laptops and gave us some never seen before creative outputs. 

The Culturals team: Guys, you all rocked the stage. The alumni as well as the DG were all left stunned by your performances. The audience was enthralled by your flawless and energetic performances. Each one of you put in your best on the stage. You all practiced and rehearsed all through the day to ensure that each and every move of yours is well coordinated and synchronised.

We would like to congratulate the dance team for their excellent choreography and coordination. The dancers were namely:Kamal, Rahul(PGB 1st yr), Shrenik, Amit Mittal,Mitesh, Rudro, Tuseet, Riddhi Shah(mms 2nd yr marketing),Neha Jain , Priya,Vineeta, Richa, Preeti Tola, Rajdeep (PG A 1st yr),Mitul,Mohit Handa,  Gargi Singh, Khushboo, Riddhi Shah - MMS 2nd yr (finance) ,Anusree Paranjpe ,Charu Vyas, Kavish, Jaya, Manushi, Garvita, Wilma, Ankita , Ayushi. 

However, Kamal Ravi, Richa Tripathi, Vineeta  Nair deserve a special mention here. Guys you'll were the ones who pulled all the strings together to put together an awesome show. You pushed each and every dancer for putting in that extra lil bit. Whether it was coordinating with the alumni committee or devising the entire sequence or coordinating with rest of the dancers you'll worked excellently.

The SIMSR music band take a bow.

We would also like to thank all our volunteers who escorted our alumni and helped us out with the registration, helped us with culturals in the audi and miscellaneous tasks on the D-day.

With the long list of those who helped in the making, we regret if in case we have missed out on any. Once again, congratulations to all of you for making this event a grand success!!!!  Kudos!!

 
Thanks & Regards,
The SIMSR Alumni Committee
