On behalf of the Canadian Bhutanese Society, we are writing to cordially invite all Bhutanese families to attend the Dashain Festival celebration on 19th October 2013.
Dashain is the annual festival celebrated by our Community. It is the most auspicious festival in the Nepalese annual calendar celebrated by Nepalese people of all castes throughout the globe. The festival is also the most anticipated event for the people of Nepalese origin.
It is our tradition to organize annually to keep the culture alive and participate in it to get a sense of community feeling.
Most importantly this year we want to acknowledge the volunteers especially the cultural dancers and volunteer teachers
Like previous years we would like to welcome New arrivals to Lethbridge. It is also a great opportunity for us to meet them and share among ourselves.
It is that time for the elders to be proud as they get to meet and bless their loved ones . Let us celebrate and enjoy this biggest festival of the year in a good spirit.
