Mount Abu The rock and Roll Fete



Muncipality Chairman Jalam Jiri



The Hostel association Mount Abu today hosted a fete for the students. It was the first ever fate organized by the association. I was there on the ground by 10.30 am as the scheduled time was 11.00 am. The fate of the fete seemed doomed by the low key activities I witnessed till 12.00pm. The stalls were still being organized; there was an air of apprehension, would the Abu schools support our efforts by sending their student to make the fete a success.
The roller coaster influx of the students caught the organizers off guard, the steady stream of students descended like the tsunami with a vengeance. Sophia High School my hats off to the sister for bringing the entire girls school to the venue. The gaiety, the rocking music from the disco stall held the student enthralled, neither the heat nor the dust had any dampening effect on the merrymaking crowds. The so called elite of the students St.Mary’s High school weren’t to be seen anywhere on the premises I really wonder, why were they grounded? I’m sure the boys if they had landed would have had a ball of a time.
Municipality chairman Jalam Giri was the chief guest , he on seeing the crowd was impressed while shaking my hand he commented , “It’s a wonderful and thoughtful way your organization have streamed your efforts to give the students of this hill station such a grand time, keep up the good work. The fete was a hit the students, the organizers and the team of devoted helpers all left the venue with a smiling faces. I’m sure the students will look forward to another fate next year.
