Let’s Play a Game!

So it’s that time of the year when the weather changes and brings with it a sea of transformation. Spring is in the air, flowers are on the bloom. The lush green grass has finally started waking up to the rays of the sun. This obviously inspires us and our kids at The Centre to get out of the warm cocoon the severe winters had forced us into, and to finally play! So here’s the game we have in mind!! If YOU, yes YOU can give us five email id’s or contact details of any person you remotely think may be interested in hearing about US – we will pay you back, in kind!! HOW? Well that’s easy! If the people whose information you’ve shared with us choose to be part of our Centre in any capacity (be it giving sponsorships or donating equipment or even just coming and spending time here…) we will send YOU a special Gift!!! We promise! So, get cracking and send in as many email id’s, telephone numbers or names of people and send them in NOW!!! Your special Gift awaits!
