Shine Bright Like a Diamond: Incoming President Nadine's Installation Night

It truly was a remarkable evening. 

The Rotary Club of Dar es Salaam Oysterbay welcomed its first lady President in style and glamour. The beautiful decor, the elegant setup, the bright shinning candles, and incredible flower arrangement were accompanied by great traditional music, a local band, delicious foods, mouth watering dessert and a lot of beauties. The night was a tribute to all women. The first lady president Nadine Atallah had a grand entrance. All the women in Rotary (members and wives) escorted her down the aisle with candles and joy. It was a spectacular entrance for an extremely beautiful and passionate Rotarian, our incoming president Nadine. After which, the men romantically whisked off their wives to their seats. 

Our President Raju spoke in his eloquent style, entertaining the guest with his humor while he reported on the success of the club during his year. We learnt about the history of the club through Past President Maninder Lamba, and heard PDG Hatim Karimjee recognize the hard work of President Raju and his team. Although, we are a fairly new club, this year we were able to win three district awards, and were recognized as a leader. We were introduced to the new teams, and witnessed the installation ceremony of the new president and her incoming board. We also inducted a new member, Rtn Sejal Ladwa to enjoy our fellowship and join hands in the service. 

We were fortunate to have DGN Harish Bhatt address our club and give the vote of thanks. The Sergeant at Arms: Rtn Rahul & Rtn Aida in their charismatic style stole the show by entertaining and humoring the crowd, you could hear the laughs all around. We had a few fun Raffle draws led by Rtn Marcus & Rtn Leena after which we danced danced danced at Club Rouge in Joysterbayian style. All in all it was an unforgettable experience, a night all members and guests would remember for years to come.
