Namma Arcot Road: Spreading the Christmas cheer

Coordinators of the Namma Arcot Road initiative have been organising an event the last Saturday of every month the past few months. This time, the last Saturday happened to be Christmas and so what better than providing an evening of fun for children and adults.

That is what the coordinators planned to do in the beginning of the month and who better than storyteller Jeeva Raghunath to spice up an evening for the little ones… as much as she is popular with adults, too.

The venue was Hotel Green Park in Vadapalani; the GM and staff there are always so helpful and willing to please… and under Ravi and Rohit’s leadership they pulled out all stops to make it a happening evening.
