Mr. and Mrs. S V. Acharya, the Potti Clan and the other hosts of Tulu Mela
2004:
Thank you for your hospitality during the Tulumela 2004. You have attained a worthy feat in efficiently arranging the Mela in a remarkable way that surely will
set a standard for the future Melas to come. The Memorial Day weekend was truly
memorable for us.
Like the locust cicada we swarmed your place,
Yet you treated us with charm and grace!
Thank you for all the attention to detail,
And all the comforts we could easily avail
For the picnic, cruise and sumptuous dinners
In our eyes, you are all deserved winners!
We look forward to more such superbly arranged meetings of our community in
the future. Thank you once again.
Sincerely Yours,
Neria Harish Hebbar

It was a very friendly, relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. God gave us good weather, people
were very nice, all the events were enjoyable and we had a very good time. We left with happy memories and good feelings.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Acharya,
On behalf of myself and my wife Poornima, I would like to extend you both a big "thank
you" for a wonderful get-together last weekend. It became clear to us that you and the organizing committee had spent
numerous hours in planning and organizing the weekend activities. Luckily the weather cooperated and it became a memorable
weekend.
Please share our thoughts with the organizing committee, the names are too numerous
to mention.
Best regards,

Dear Mr. Acharya,
Just a note to say how enjoyable
the recent Tulumela was. I appreciate very much the hard work you and Nirmala put towards the function. Right from the start
everything were perfect and for such a large gathering things worked out very well. Hope future Tulumelas will be in the same
standard if not better so that many people will continue to attend. God bless.
Affectionately,
Dr. Srinivas Rao, UK --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Nirmala & Vasudev Achar,
For us, Tulumela 04 was a memorable experience.
We could meet and renew contacts with so many families from India. Well organised programmes, tasty food with variety,
cultural events and very good arrangements are the highlights of this get together. Attention to details ( such
as names for the buses, food for elders during the cruise, fun games for all ages ) was remarkable.
We had changed our travel plans to attend the
Tulumela and it turned out that it was worth waiting for. Thanks and Congratulations once again to all the Committe
Members, specially you both. Looking forward for the next Tulumela.

Dear S.V. anna and Nirmala akka
We thoroughly
enjoyed ourselves beyond our expectations. For a few days after the event, we were actually feeling a little homesick
and wished the event had continued for a few days more.
Thank you both for your extraordinary contributions.
Allow my family to be your gracious host if you visit Atlanta anytime - we will be moving there shortly.
