A2MM Picnic 2026 - वर्षा सहलीचा धमाल अनुभव!

वादळ-वाऱ्याला आणि मुसळधार पावसाला न जुमानता काल *A2MM Picnic* मध्ये सामील झालेल्या तमाम मंडळींच्या उत्साहाला सलाम !! तुमच्या सहभागामुळे आपली वर्षा सहल मस्त पार पडली. कार्यक्रमाच्या सुरुवातीला आणि शेवटी हजेरी लावून पावसानेही काही प्रमाणात सहकार्य केलं असंच म्हणायला हवं. त्यामुळे मधल्या वेळात आपण plan केलेले सगळे खेळ मनसोक्त खेळता आले. चमचा-लिंबू race आणि संगीत खुर्ची (musical chairs) was a huge hit! लहान - मोठ्या सगळ्यांनी भाग घेतला आणि धमाल आणली. विशेष म्हणजे *Tushar* आणि *Gauri Pawar* या दोघांनी ज्या enthusiasm ने हे games conduct केले, त्यामुळे खरंतर ते जास्त मजेदार वाटले. Kudos to this wonderful couple & thank you for leading this fun activity! त्यांना सहाय्य करणाऱ्या *Ashwini Dole* आणि *Preeti Patil* यांनाही खूप खूप धन्यवाद.

Youth च्या सहभागाशिवाय कुठलाही कार्यक्रम यशस्वी होऊच शकत नाही. A big shout out to *Vivaan & Miheeka Pawar* for planning & executing the Treasure Hunt for their youth friends. That really added a nice touch to the fun day!

काल कितीतरी लोकांनी lunch menu चं भरभरुन कौतुक केलं. असा झक्कास menu plan करण्याचं श्रेय आहे *Mandar Deshpande* आणि *Mugdha Thote* या आमच्या Food Leads चं. हे सगळे पदार्थ वेळेवर Picnic स्थळी पोहोचतील याची काळजी घेणारे *Valmik* व *Pallavi Darade* आणि *Siddharth Shende* यांचे मानावे तेवढे आभार कमीच आहेत. तसेच दुपारच्या चहाबरोबर चटकदार Corn भेळ बनवून तयार ठेवल्याबद्दल आणि lunch serving साठी मदत केल्याबद्दल *Shama Deshpande, Smita Narkar, Medha Karkare, Saket Thote, Prasad Oraskar* यांचे मनापासून आभार. Kudos to their volunteering spirit !

Picnic साठीची Infra inventory दोन आठवड्यांपूर्वीच तयार ठेवणाऱ्या Infra team चे विशेष कौतुक. *Arvind Bhosle, Valmik Darade, Alok Gadgil, Mandar Deshpande, Siddharth Shende* या कार्यक्षम मंडळींमुळे Infra related गोष्टी सोप्या झाल्या. Special mention is due to *Arvind Bhosle* and *Suresh Gorde* for helping with the transportation of the Infra stuff.

Picnic ला आलेल्या प्रत्येक कुटुंबाला check-in / register करण्याचं महत्वाचं काम *Shubhada Kulkarni* यांनी एकहाती पार पाडलं. 'महत्वाचं' अशासाठी, कारण याद्वारे A2MM Team ला food quantity आणि इतर logistics संबंधी उपयोगी data मिळतो, ज्याचा उपयोग पुढच्या event च्या planning साठी होतो. Thank you *Shubhada* !

कुठलाही कार्यक्रम करायचा म्हटलं, की पहिली पायरी असते Marketing & Communication! *Shrikant Bokil* याने अतिशय समर्थपणे ती जबाबदारी पार पाडली. अतिशय consistently आणि creatively ही बाजू सांभाळली, त्यासाठी kudos to *Shrikant* and a big thank you!

And last but not the least, thanks to *Shweta Dabholkar* , for jumping in with help wherever needed!

The 2026 A2MM Picnic was indeed a BLAST !! See you all next on Sept 19th to celebrate Ganpati.
