Dear OC’s , 
OCA (India) had finalized the participation fee to attend the sesquicentennial celebrations at Shimla from 2nd October to 6th October 2009 at Rs. 10,000/-per OC ( per couple) . This amount would be used to provide for 3 dinners and 2 lunches during the celebrations and the entertainment programmes in relation to the same.

Recently, at a meeting held in Shimla, members of the committee put forward that this method of collection of funds needs to be flexible so as to ensure greater participation. Further, they put forward that some of the members, resident in Shimla may not find it convenient to attend 5 meals during the celebrations, and the amount of Rs. 10,000/- would be a limiting factor if the OC wished to attend just one meal. In deference to the wishes of the members, it was decided that an amount of Rs. 2000/- should be kept as registration fee and this shall be used towards funding the entertainment programme / s. In addition, OC’s should be requested to contribute funds as per their desire to meet the meal expenses.
