Goa Day 2002 -
The Grand Goan Celebrations at
IAC-Kuwait / 18th Oct. 2002 It's on Friday, 18th October 2002 at the Indian Arts Cirle - Funaitees, Kuwait, Goans in large numbers will celebrate Goa Day 2002 for the seventh time. The traditional event depicting "Goenkarancho Ekvott" since 1995 has been an interesting and eagerly awaited event of the calendar year to all Goans and their friends in Kuwait. The concept of 'Goa Day' has now spread far and wide, and Goan Welfare Society-Kuwait are proud that the original idea behind celebrating a day once a year has now spread worldwide. This year, Goan Welfare Society-Kuwait will join hands with Goan clubs and organizations as in the past for Goa Day 2002, including: Goan Overseas Association, United Friends Club, Curtorcares United, Chinchinim Villagers Association, Assolna-Velim-Cuncolim Sports & Cultural Association, United Club of Utorda, Colva United Centre, and the Goan community to dedicate themselves to friendship, unity and love of Goa. www.goa-world.net/gws/ The organizers keep their ethnic culture alive and kicking despite being distanced from their beloved motherland - the tourist destination of many - Goa. Shri Swashpawan Singh, Ambassador of India, has kindly consented to be the chief guest. The ethnic throb echoes vibrantly in the cultural outpourings as can be seen at Goa Day events in Kuwait. Enjoy a pleasant full day programme from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. at the Games Stalls, Goan Food Stalls, and entertain yourself with your family and friends at Goan Cultural Programme, Konkani singing competition, Applaud the GWS Educational Awards Winners (the meritorious Goans students studying in Kuwait), and the treat yourself to the musical delights presented by "Renegade" - specially flown from Goa, courtesy of main sponsor: Indian Airlines. www.indian-airlines.com GWS Educational Awards are sponsored by Mr. & Mrs. Sam Alphonso, patron member of GWS.
