Melbournian Goans set themselves for massive celebrations on World Goa Day People of Goa and their friends in Melbourne are preparing themselves to celebrate their fourth annual celebration namely World Goa Day scheduled to take place on 30 September 2006.
This year's theme is to uphold their mother tongue "Konkani" and yet blend in the multicultural landscape of Merlbourne. According to Oscar Lobo, one of the organisers, "many people had missed out on last year's event due to limited number of seats at St. Anthony's Hall". To ward off such an eventualirty this year, the World Goa Day organisers have chosen Kingston City Hall, Nepean Highway, Moorabbin, which can accomodate a larger number of guests. For those who missed out on last year's carnival and others who wish to join in the celebrations of this year, can contact one of the organisers named below. The event is a Formal Dinner Dance with a renowned 9 pcs band 'Replay 6 with Sandra', who have promised a fantastic night, together with a colourful goan folk dance, delicious buffet provided by Silver Platter and a night of the warm Goan hospitality - a great night out for the whole family. For tickets, contact, Johnny Fernandes 97111533 / 0404 817533 or Salus Correia 97618531 / 0411 126624 or Oscar Lobo 95639918 / 0404 848345 _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
