The President was given a small but thoughtful gift by the Vice President, Masihuddin Mohammed on behalf of the Old Boys of Campion School. The President treated the members present to a party in the premises of the school after which he gave the boys a talk regarding the activities of the Association and its uses abroad making a reference to members Meherwan Boyce who was to leave for America for further studies.
The application forms were signed and the requisite amount was paid by some of the members. Dara Masani was the first old boy of Campion to enroll himself as a Founder member of the Association.
The President asked the members to give suggestions for the proposed ‘badge & tie’ of the association. After having consulted the managing committee regarding a change in the name of the association from Campion School Old Boys Association to ‘Old Campionites’ Association the President forwarded the suggestion to the members all of whom agreed.
The Old Campionites Association would be abbreviated as ‘OCA’ for matters of correspondence etc.
The meeting was then adjourned with a vote of thanks to the chair.
The President then showed the members an interesting picture which was thoroughly enjoyed.
The members thanked their beloved Principal for the enjoyable evening and wished him all the best in health and happiness with success in all his new ventures and enterprises.
May he stay long enough with us as our President to see the light of the OCA shining with glory in every sphere of its activities and taste the fruits of an Association founded by him on his fifty- third birthday anniversary.
