The Canorient Christian Accociation held their annual Apna Karachi Gala on September 19th 2015 in a beautuifully decorated hall at the Best Western Port O’Call Hotel in Northeast Calgary.
MC George Aranha’s welcome address in Urdu to the 135 guests in attendance, accompanied by Joel Lobo’s “trip down memory lane” slideshow brought back a lot of wonderful memories and got everyone reminiscing about the past.
DJ David from “Squiggly Sounds” played a great selection of music and kept the crowd on the floor the entire night. Guests were entertained by belly dancer Aphrodit Espanioli who, with her signature belly dancing moves, was able coax a number of ladies from the crowd to join her on the floor.
A delicious East Indian Buffet with appetizers and late night snacks along with numerous door prizes donated by our members, only added to the night’s festivities.
The committee would like to thank all who supported the event, especially those who donated prizes and their time to make the Apna Karachi a success.
