We celebrated our silver jubilee in 2009. Celebrations
started off with a religious ceremony, a Dhamma
sermon by Ven T. Chandakitti organized at the Siri
Vajiragnana Dharmayathanaya – Maharagama on the exact day
of our Anniversary, the 28th of March with a lot of our
loyal customer friends whom we invited. Which followed a
Sangika Dana for 25 Buddhist priests at our showroom.
The next function was held at the BMICH- Hall B on the 5th
of April 2009, where 25 of our brave differently abled
soldiers who were the chief guests of the occasion. They
were gifted with custom made artificial limbs. A brief
introduction of each Soldier was given by our young
Optometrist, Sahani who conducted the ceremony as they
were receiving the gifts on stage. They were also given a
bag of goodies brought by most of our customers who wanted
to join in this meritorious act. The Children of these
brave men were also gifted with stationary and toys to
suit their ages.
Other guests of honour were, then Director General of Home
Guards-Vice Admiral Sarath Weerasekara, Dr. (Mrs)
Goonasinghe, Dr. D.B.K De Silva, Dr.(Mrs) Geetha
Munasinghe, Ms. C.K. Abeyratne & Mr. Jayalath Pedris.
Many of our long standing and loyal customers, friends
were invited for this occasion. With all their busy
schedules with Avurudu round the corner they did not
want to miss this event and were with us on that Sunday
morning. Two of our young customers (aspiring) singer
friends Kithmini and Hasini entertained the crowd with a
few patriotic songs, backed by instrumental music which
was loved by all and gave the event the needed upliftment
for the occation.
All the invites were treated to snacks thereafter and the
soldiers and their families were entertained in the VIP
room at the BMICH which made them extremely happy. Later
they were treated to lunch as well before leaving for
their homes, in Anuradhapura, Kurunegala and other far
away places.
