SPRING 2010

President’s Message

Greetings to everybody. Winter is towards its tail-end, spring is in the air, longer and warmer days are ahead. I was volunteered to serve as ICRCC's President for 2010 by our board members. As you see there are some old and some new Board of Directors. Please join me in welcoming new and thanking old for their services to the community. Despite their busy lives, they have given their 100% to the community. Spring Festival is around the corner and we need your help in organizing the cultural program and the food fair. I request you and your family to actively participate in the Spring Festival and other ICRCC's activities planned during the summer and fall.

Our fiscal year starts in the month of October 1 and our membership are generally renewed at that time. However, we encourage new people of our community to become members any time at reduced rate (if membership starts much later than October1) and then continue with their yearly membership dues around Deepawali time.

We are going green and for this reason we will be requesting your e-mails in our Spring Festival. In the future, we plan to keep you updated with the community news and activities through our e-mails, thus reducing the frequency of our news letter. Please visit our web site http://www.icrcc.org for the latest ICRCC information. I thank you all for letting me serve you.
