The centenary celebration is not just a commemoration of the passage of time, but a celebration of our collective achievements shared memories and enduring bonds that have bound us together as a community. It provides us with an opportunity to reflect on the journey of our association, from its humble beginnings to its present-day stature, and to honour the contributions of those who have played a pivotal role in shaping its legacy.As we embark on this momentous occasion, it is essential for us to celebrate the centenary year with great enthusiasm and pride.

Celebrating common events as a collective event can yield numerous benefits for our present and future generations. By uniting in celebration, we honour our shared history, foster a sense of unity and camaraderie, and ultimately create a stronger and more vibrant community.

We propose to keep it on 8th and 9 ^ (th) of February 2025 at Poisor Gymkhana. On 8th February we propose to hold field and track events along with a few group events for all age groups. On the second day, that is on the 9th of February, we plan to have cricket matches between various associations belonging to the Tulu Kannadigas of Mumbai.

By engaging with our shared heritage, we can instil a sense of pride and belonging in our younger generations, helping them to connect with their roots and cultivate a strong sense of cultural identity. This shared experience creates a foundation for future generations to build upon, preserving our traditions and ensuring the continuity of our shared heritage. This could also become a platform in which we can address major issues affecting our community.

In addition, coming together to celebrate common events provides a platform for the exchange of ideas and the forging of new partnerships.
