Warm greetings to all the members of NAMA!

The 18th Annual Convention of North American Manipur Association was held during the 4th of July weekend at Rockville, MD, a suburb of Washington, DC. NAMA members residing at DC area hosted the meeting with great enthusiasm and vibrant. It was a team effort - each member family contributing a specific task for the successful conduct of the meeting. It will be difficult to single out a particular family but we would like to recognize the families for Guru Naba, Surjalal Sharma, Thoihen/Linthoi, Monica/Saijee, Bobo Hijam, Jai, and Sanatombi for their tireless efforts. Again, this year we had several new members attending the meeting for the first time. Their presence is especially encouraging and a great pleasure for the NAMA Team and members. We had members attending from different states including Maine, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Oklahoma, and others.

We thank all the attendees and those who made great contribution for making the Conference a great success even though they could not attend the meeting. We also missed several NAMA members who could not make to the meeting because of program conflicts. We hope to see every one again in next year's meeting.



The evening of July 4th had a reception at Moirangthem family's resident, which was a memorable night for everyone getting to know each other and exchanging pleasant conversations.
