Lions District 318E Governor Er Vineesh Vidhyadharan, DGE Dr Suchitra Sudhir, PDG Dr K Damodaran were also present. Dr Bijoy Antony, nephrologist of ACME, Pariyaram also graced the occasion.

We have spent about Rs 300,000/- for the project so far, and started with 3 dialysis machines. The money was raised through a public entertainment program held in Dec 2012, in which film actor Mukesh and Captain Raju had participated. It was for the first of its kind in northern Malabar area, particularly a very big program for the small town of Payyanur. About 13,000 people had gathered and Vice admiral of Indian Navy had participated. We also collected money from various philanthropic people of the area, particularly, Mr NC Prakash, and Sri AT Muhammed Kunhi, both of whom donated one machine at a cost of 500 thousand each. Our members Sri Sudhir babu and Sri T Jafar also donated Rs 300 thousand each.

The project was conceived and implemented by our dynamic president V Balan  with good support of all the members especially Dr Rajiv S. We have taken up the challenged of not only spending the money, but taking on ourselves the responsibility of running the center. Dialysis will be done at very nominal cost, and after further fund-raising, we hope to increase the number of machines, and thus reducing the cost to patient.

Club Tour April !!

We had a quite enjoyable club tour to Coorg - Virajpet on Apr 14-15th. A good representation of the club, including senior member KP Ahmed joined. Unlike the usual tours, we kept away from cities and shopping, stayed in a homestay, went trekking and other nature adventures. We stayed in a homestay (Mount View, of Mr Boppanna, 9448720665, who was very helpful) near virajpet, a nature-ful location surrounded by hills and lush greenery. We had a campfire on 14th, under stary skies. Our host served us tasty and simple dinner, and breakfast next morning. Morning walk was quite peaceful and relaxing, in the country road. Our host accompanied us, that day, first for a short trek. The climb was quite steep, but exhilarating. After that we visited a nearby small waterfalls. Then we visited a adventure activity center located in the depth of an estate (http://www.noworneverland.com/home.html). Some went in dirt bikes, which could traverse any sort of hilly road. The most exciting part of our tour was the jungle gym. It had 12 stages of activities, like tight rope walking. It was quite nerve wrecking even for the onlookers, but we finished it. There was facilities for rappelling too, over the water fall, but we didn't attempt it, as we were tired and hungry. We said good bye to Coorg after a late lunch in Virajpet (there are no good restaurants there, we had in a small place -Greens).
