Community Thanks for Successful Baisakhi Event

The Bengali Cultural Society Cleveland has expressed gratitude to the many volunteers and sponsors who contributed to its Baisakhi event on May 9. In a message to the community, society president Arunabha Kundu praised the performers, who rehearsed every weekend for two months, and thanked Amiya Banerjee and Sipra di for hosting those rehearsals at their home.

Kundu also acknowledged the technical team of Ayan Maity, Suman Kundu, and Kaustav Banerjee for handling lighting, sound, and stage projection. Pompeya Bhattacharya, Ranjan Dutta, and Utpal Datta prepared the food, while Anmol Banerjee, Poly Banerjee, Chumki Deb, and Kankana Mullick boxed the meals. Other volunteers helped serve snacks and dinner.

Marutirtha Roy, Monalisa Roy, Indrajit Mukherjee, and Kingshuk Das photographed and filmed the event. The society's social media group shared updates, and the two prerecorded children's songs in the program were sung and orchestrated by the young performers themselves.

Kundu closed by thanking the sponsors and all other unnamed volunteers, saying the event showed the strength of the community when working together.
