Hello all,
           Here is the list of all the volunteers who are willing to work on November 20 for the setup of the hall for the evening. Please do mail back if you have any changes or conflicts.

Here is the update of the Fridays meeting on Oct 29 at 5:00pm. Meeting from 5:15pm till 6:00pm Students attended:
Rohini, Jassi, Sandhya, Megha, Aprup, Naren, Ranjith, Hitesh, Tanuj, Aanal, Sandeep, Madhurima.

The amount from the students who sold tickets was collected.
Tanuj will be one of the Master of ceremony.
Heyyyyyyy are we missing something here.......
Cookies and candys from the Business school and Rohini. Thanks for the
treat !!!we enjoyed them.

This was all for this meeting folks...


We have only 2 weeks for the event and it is really very short time. After the count of the tickets sold was seen there were only 50 tickets sold out of 320.
Our anticipation of number of people to attend the event is around 300 and this will only be possible when every one of us can sell atleast 5 to 6 tickets per person.This show is a group effort and is by no means a
one man show.. so we need your cooperation in making this a successful one...
This event is being conducted after 2 years of inactivity and plays a major role of prestige to EKTA.
2 weeks is a reaaly little time and there are a lot more things to be done. Please be considerate enough in taking this event as our event and either  it is a  success or a failure is depends on us. We request all the students who have taken the tickets to attend the next  meeting because we need some budget to start up things and we need the count of people coming in.

Lets get started and keep going...
We appreciate all those who are putting in a lot of efforts and time  out of their busy schedules...

Regards,
Ekta
