POINT REUNION in New York REPORT
We had approximately 26 attendees including Fr Van, a few
spouses and Tony Laos son and his girlfriend. A complete list of all who
attended is given below. Fr Van gave a brief speech about the current state of
affairs at our alma mater. It is heartening to note that after the turmoil of
the last few years, the present situation has never looked more promising. The
school renovation is well underway and some phases of the Vision 2000+ Renewal
project have already commenced. With continued help from all the alumni, current
parents and supporting patrons, the school is looking to a bright future. At some point the alumni gathered around Fr Van and we gave
a rousing rendition of the school song. We also had some picture taking and hope
to be able to supply some pictures to Ashok Sadhwani to put up on our web site. After a delicious meal featuring a variety of Indian
dishes, we got down to business. All alumni who had not yet filled out their Bio
Forms were asked to do so. We then proceeded to collect donations to the school
from all present. The total amount raised was over USD$7,000 including donations
from Patrick Mahat (Vikrom Mahataphongse 62) and Ken Lao (Sunny Thein
Aung 64) who had a mini alumni reunion in the Washington area with Fr Van
and Nigel Brady on Oct 3rd. Towards the end of the evening we had a surprise visit from Mukesh Mirchandani who had only just arrived at JFK after a grueling flight from Calcutta. He was practically dead on his feet, but was determined to meet with the USA (East) NP alumni. We salute and thank him for his effort.
