The Kottyam Foodfest, a Signature Event of KRTRT 121, was held on Jan 23rd – 26th at Kottyam. It showcased the finest food from around the world, with live cooking, auto show, kids entertainment area and stage shows.
It’s the biggest Publicity / Fund Raiser event of its kind and it generated immense publicity through print and electronic media.
As our AC Tr. Sujay very aptly said: “This is the biggest publicity cum fundraising event executed by any Table in Round Table India…”. The Huge crowds & brilliant execution clearly shows the team spirit of KRTRT 121.
Congrats to Chairman Tr. Sudeep and the Food Fest convenor Tr. Kitchu for a fantastic job done. 121ers… You Rock!!
Sending the notice for the 2nd AEX of RTI, Area-1 to be held at 11.AM on 13th February, 2010 at Kodaikanal. Request all the Area Convenors and the Table Chairmen to send in their report latest by Jan 31st, 2010.
None of the Nineteen current Tablers of ART 103 have gone on a Tabler’s Families Day Out. Convener Tr. Mathan & his wife Renju and Baby Neiza took thirteen families and two stags from ART 103 to Kuttikanam. He had planned the whole trip so extensively that the Tachometer of the vehicle showed exactly 103 Kms on reaching our destination.
Tr. Mathan was adamant that all travel in their own cars and their drivers follow to Kuttikanam by bus. The reason behind this was, four fun filled pit stops at beautiful locations and task sheets for the ladies, while traveling from one pit stop to another.
Photos provided by Tr. Vinod Balaji.
A few examples of questions he had put forth to the ladies were;
“Name all the ladies of 103 and the colleges they studied in.”
The ladies were asked to learn a few sentences in Arabic and say it to a total stranger who was arranged at one of the pit stops. On saying this correctly the ladies were given the next questionnaire. Mathan even arranged a video camera at this point to capture the Arabic speaking ladies of ART in action.

Tr. George and Deepa were the best rally drivers and they won a bottle of Sky Vodka and a designer ladies hand bag. At Kuttikanam, the fun only continued. A mixed doubles shuttle tournament was arranged for the ladies and a table tennis tournament for the kids.
In the evening after the sun had retired, the real fun started. Kids and elders all got involved in the entertainment part. Tr.Prashanth and Rekha as always brought a lot of games for the families, which in turn burnt all the remaining brain cells of Tr.Primal. Tr.Ambu and Ann were adjudged the best couple in the brain games that were held. The fun went on till 1.00 am.
ART surprised the Sun by being ‘up and ready for action’ by 8.30 am. After breakfast, ART took off to a beautiful location called Parintumpara. The clear blue skies welcomed us there and we spent quality time there till the afternoon. Tr. George’s bottle of Sky Vodka was emptied there.
After lunch, the ladies demanded for an encore of the same every year. The Tablers obliged by picking up Tr.Jobin Jose as the convener for the Families Day Out 2010-2011.
