Respected
Members,
If
the first month of the new year at JCL is anything to go by, we're going to have
one rocking, eventfully year ahead.In
the same spirit, we bid adieu to 2018 in the Club with much fun and fanfare. My
special thanks are due to the members, their guests, and the JCL service staff,
who ensured that New Year's Eve was a smashing success and went off in a smooth
manner, despite being one of the most popular and talked about events of the
city.
For
the evening, all the food was prepared by Club's kitchen staff – chefs Shri Rajender and Shri Gopal, along their team of cooks, deserve an applause for
their delectable dishes. On the administrative front, all the three managers, Shri Narender, Shri Munish and Shri Bhagwan Sahai, extra vigilant and
contributed to the evening's success. Last but not the least, the entire Club office
staff, including Shri Gajanand, Shri
Sanjay Saini, and Shri
Praveen, needs a special mention for
the efforts put in by them.
I
would take this opportunity to thank the sponsors of this event. My colleagues
of the Management Committee, especially Dr.
Satish Bhardwaj, Shri Ashok Baheti and Shri Hemanshu Sehgal, along with the members of the function
committee, especially Mrs. Ranoo Srivastava,
Shri Sanjay Pabuwal and Dr. Saket
Mathur made this function a grand success.

The
Lohri function kicked off the festivities of 2019 with traditional Punjabi décor
and a dhaba ambience, and the dance troupe from Jalandhar to the whole charm. The
beats of the dhol and the DJ made sure that no one could stay away from the
dance floor.
On
the afternoon reserved for Kite flying, the Weather Gods were on our side, so
people enjoyed pheni and gajak, and of course the Sunday winter lunch, which
has become a smash hit, while flying kites that were provided to them by the
Club. I'd like to appreciate the efforts put in by Dr. Saket Mathur for making
the winter lunches such a success.
In
other Club news, after the refurbishment of the family lounge, the children's
room is next on our agenda.

The
Jaipur Club's sports committee organized a 20-20 cricket match between President XI and Secretary XI, of which the first match was played at railway
grounds on 27th January, 2019. President XI won the toss and elected
to bat. Even though Saxena demolished
their top order by taking three wickets for just 15 runs, they managed to score
145 runs, especially due to the gutsy 44 runs by Shri Gurmukh Singh, and won
the match by 15 runs. The highest run scoring batsman was Shri Gurmukh Singh and the highest bowler was Shri Naveen Bhansali.
