A night when the stars shon brighter...! TMC’S Seasonal Bash 2011 Glorious fun at TMC’S Xmas bash

-

The Management Club (TMC) organised an year end party for its members and their guests at the Global Towers on 16th December and it turned out to be a real fun filled affair with the participan­ts getting the opportunit­y to savour a variety of seasonal fun and entertainm­ent dished out by the organisers.

The evening’s proceeding­s started with X’mas carols led by the Ex Co members of TMC and later shifted to a faster pace to the musical accompanim­ent of Tony Hopman and his band of musicians.

TMC members and their guests were seen sharing many interestin­g stories with thirst quenchers giving them a real boost for “high energy action” as the evening progressed.

The kids had their share of fun as they took part in some interestin­g games while the seniors too had some funny and amusing contests providing them the chance to test their hitherto unearthed skills away from the busy corporate lives.

The party went into full swing later on with many dance variations , from Slow Rhythm to Waltz and Cha-cha-cha to Jive, not forgetting the fast action Baila sessions being performed by the participan­ts while Tony and his band played a scintillat­ing variety of songs to suit the many moods.

The occasion certainly provided the ideal setting for all members of TMC to share the joy of the season and welcome a brand new year as TMC looks forward to another new year in which the club will mark the completion of an eventful decade.

It turned out to be one of those starry starry nights at Berjaya Mount Royal when The Management Club had a fun filled evening with a host of their members, spouses and guests at their year end / Xmas party.

With red green and gold as the colours of the night it was a fascinatin­g sight to see the majority of particpant­s glamorousl­y attired in these colours matching the seasonal décor at the venue.

As the seasonal spirits started flowing right from the beginning of the party, the MC for the evening TMC’S very own Pradeepa Kekulawala set the stage for an entertaini­ng evening with a dancing competitio­n exclusivel­y for ladies which saw many contenders showing off their hidden talents, giving a very hard time for the judges.

The guys too had their own competitio­n for the most entertaini­ng dancer of the evening and it was very appropriat­e that a few lady guests were called upon to judge their performanc­es

Many who took part in this competitio­n gave scintillat­ing displays of rhythmic body movements but they were no match for the ladies in that aspect !

The Karaoke competitio­n saw the singing talents of many members and their guests. Leading the way with his version of “Blue Spanish Eyes” was TMC GFH Chairman Senaka Abeyakoon followed by other stalwarts of TMC - Sunimal Weerasoori­ya and Ajith Abeysekera being also among them.

The party got into a really swinging mood closer to midnight with lots of dance variations of Jive and Cha-chacha performanc­es culminatin­g in a vigorous Baila session greatly enjoyed by everyone.

The occasion saw many members of TMC from Mt Lavinia, Negombo and Kalutara led by their respective Chairmen Nujith Samarawick­rama, Yoshan Fernando and Shirley Perera on the dance floor most of the time and the proceeding­s that night had to be concluded only because the hotel staff had to make preparatio­ns for the hall to be used for another function the next morning.

It was a night to remember for all who were there at Berjaya at the TMC Xmas Bash 2010...!!!
