Sure Manoj valid points.

Also one quick update/clarification:
There were some confusions on different contribution amounts. As such it has been proposed/agreed to keep it same as SGD 20 per adult for ALL, even for additional guests.

Any confusion/inconvenience  caused is regretted. Lets stick to same amount for all and submit our and our guests' contribution in the coming meeting on Sat 10/27 at 4pm.

Dear Amit, Ram and madhaviji thank you for the wonderful choreography effort.

Let's also start thinking about food choices and give ur opinion about caterer. If you know any resto has promo pls share that info.

Final day program schedule also need to be drafted reviewed carefully to ensure everything is managed smoothly and we finish gracefully.

Regards,
Manoj

Hi Amit Bhaiya / Renuka,
 
Following are the participants who have confirmed for fancy dress, so far
(Anyone interested to add to the list, pls do so.)
1) Ojas
2) Adrit
3) Aryan
4) Parth
 
Request you to kindly include this addition to the program list.
Suggest, to include it after the inital prayer as children who are performing may not like to stay in the outfit for very long.
 
Thank you .

Dear All
 
I would like to add in one more program to the list.
Realised that children within age group of 1-5 are not participating in anything.
We were initially discussing about fancy dress for them, however skipped to mention
during the meeting.
Children within the mentioned age group can participate in the fancy dress,
wherein each of the participant can relate themselves to a particular character.
He/She can dress up, dance, speak/act something, or also play some music related to the character. Each can be given a timelimit of 2-3 mins to perform.
 
So all those who are interested, kindly confirm at the earliest, so that a time slot can be alloted to this program as well.
 
Best Regards
Kavita

Dear Amit Bhaiyya

Thanks for updating the Time line.

** A small suggestion, the estimated time for each performance as per my understanding,  will be approximtely 6  mins. Except for Fancy dress based on Kavitha's email,  it will be 3 mins per child totalling upto 15 mins (approx)

Further please include the below events also as mentioned to Renuka verbally over phone yesterday.

1. Song by Manas Bajaj & Tarun Devu (approx 5 mins)

2. Song by Kavitha Bajaj & Madhavi Devu (3 mins 45secs)

Thank you

Best Regards
Madhavi Devu.
