Crystal Focus Club - Kuwait, a Goan Club managed by six Goan ladies, held with much pomp and splendor their �Jeans Bash 2004� for 3 Ts �Teens, Twenties and Thirties on August 20, 2004 at the Al-Sha�ab Leisure Park.
A dream project of �entertainment at the most casual and relaxed state of mind� Jeans Bash 2004 lived to be a pleasant getaway from the usual routine, office humdrum, monotonous schedules and formal attires for a strong gathering of over 250 people of varied diversities and ages dressed in the most casual attire and battered-tattered, knotty-spotty, trendy and sporty jeans.
The Bash kicked off with some early over-zealous entrants gyrating to the foot-tapping music of DJ Loyola and the continuous Bloopers sessions. MC Merwyn known for his spontaneity, flair and gifted gab did a fabulous job of entertaining the overwhelmingly hungry-for-dancing crowd until the fag end of the Bash.
The Al-Sha�ab Leisure Hall decorated with jeans glittered with magnificent show of lighting and a lovely backdrop of Jeans Bash.
The show was co-sponsored by KDD Co, Almarai Co. for Juices & Caramel, Showtime Co. and Mr. Loyola. Tony Viegas, our stalwart Member and Volunteers
The juries Luis Morais, Vincy D�Silva and Conchita Cardozo exhibited their exceptional capabilities for an efficient round up of 15 couple contestants for the Medley Dance Competition. The Contestants swayed to music mix of cha-cha, waltz, disco, reggae and Hindi-pop and the couple, Ronny and Fiona were adjudged the best Medley-dance couple for the evening.
In the Bloopers Contest, the duo, Vicky & Nuwan won the best place for their blooper �life is like jeans, easy to wear but tough to tear�, and Valerie was awarded the second prize. Also many spot prizes were given away during the dance sessions.
During the Lunch and Housie break, Gracy Rodrigues, General Secretary rendered a greeting-cum-thank you note to the gathering, special invitees, sponsors, volunteers, MC, DJ, juries, caterers and others who supported the Jeans Bash.
Special thanks was conveyed to Lydia Aguiar for designing the Jeans Bash Banner, Augusto Morais for his strong support to the Crystal Focus Club Members by way of Media Coverage and IT Support, and Gasper Almeida, General Secretary, Goan Welfare Society-Kuwait and Associate, www.goa-world.com for the press and Net coverage for Jeans Bash 2004.
