March 2011

Dear members,

Our March 2011 event turned out to be a fantastic show, all of you who attended witnessed the wonderful performances

by our children. Mother nature supported us by `holding off the rain' and we almost had a full turnout. It was so nice to

see so many `thathas and paatties' in the audience and I could feel the happiness, pride and encouragement they had for

all our children. Many performers were lucky to have their teachers also in the audience!

We all know that CCC has a large pool of music learning children but we witnessed yesterday that every one of them is

doing the best that they can and many parents of those kids attributed that success to CCC! Each and every performance was so refreshing and had its own charm and depth to it! Almost everyone tried some manodharmam aspects in this friendly platform, raising the bar for future performers! Vijay's strong vocals, Malini's sweet voice, Pranav & Adithya's `one-voice' duet, Priyanka's melodious veena, Ashwin's bold performance and Vedika's captivating singing made our event a treat for any one who attended. A big thanks to all the accompanists, Sanjay, Hrishikesh, Vignesh, Ajay and Akshay for their fabulous support! Kudos to all of you MARCH 2011 performers!

Many thanks to Sandhya and Swaminathan for hosting the event at their beautiful home, hope everything is back to normal at their house now!

Namdev and his team did a fantastic job, everyone seated in all areas could hear/see the lovely performances without any issues!

CCC offers its special thanks to Tirupathi Bhimas for their support by providing tea and snacks to all the attendees at a heavily discounted rate. Speical thanks to Rama Thyagarajan for picking up the food from the restaurant. We encourage all members to visit Bhimas and please mention CCC to get a 20% discount on your bill. I'd also like to thank all the performing children's parents for their financial donation towards snacks.

Our next monthly event will be held on Sunday April 3rd, 2011 @1pm, please mark your calendars now and I will send out the Evite closer to the event date.

Best Regards....Padma Mohan
