Hundreds of participants in Shree Umiya Mataji Navaratri Garba with Kinjal Dave by Shree Umiya Dham Chicago Midwest

More than 6,200 people attended Shree Umiya Mataji Navaratri Garba with Kinjal Dave that was organized by Shree Umiya Dham Chicago Midwest (SUDCM) on Saturday, Sept. 17 at Renaissance Schaumburg Convention Center Schaumburg Illinois. Mataji Palki was beautifully decorated by SHUKAN mandap and was placed in the center of the venue.

It was a well-organized flow from beginning to end. RAJESH DESAI volunteered to lead the project. Narendra Patel & Pankaj Patel committed to support Rajesh Desai in this project

Under Rajesh Desai's direction, KPS & SUDCM formed responsible teams to distribute the responsibilities for managing each area. The Floor Team, Registration Team, Wristband Team, Stage Team, Food Team, Decoration Team, and Raffle Team took responsibility for their respective areas and all teams outperformed beyond expectation. Show was sold out in advance with record breaking ticket sales in Chicago.

Program started at 6.30 pm with Deep pragatya ceremony that was attended by Mafatbhai Patel, Himanshubhai Modi, Mithabhai Patel, Jayantibhai Patel, Bhavik Patel, Harmil Patel, Haribhai Patel, Dahyabhai Prajapati, Prafulbhai Rami accompanied by SUDCM chairman Chhotalal Patel. After a deep pragatya ceremony Kinjal Dave and her team took the stage.

Grand sponsors, Platinum sponsors & Maha Arti sponsors were honored by flowers on the stage. Dr. Bharat & Panna Barai represented the Federation of Seniors of Chicago and were honored with flowers.

Kinjal Dave's event drew the largest Indian community crowd in the history of Chicago. In the audience we saw all generations having the time of their life. Gujarati Daughter's wonderful voice in two tali, three tali, ras garba, SANEDO and every type of song got everyone on their hills all night alone. Of course ladies did a little bit of shopping to support their test as well at the booths.

The SUDCM team and volunteers did a great job on reaching out to the community to bring in high profile sponsors, selling booths, banners, tickets, and for organizing & managing the event. Lucky Draw was planned and managed by the Raffle Team. They collected over $2,600. Good job by team. Lucky draw object was the latest model I-phone 14. Which was one of the brilliant ideas of the SUDCM team.

After Maha Arti by Mithabhai Patel, Jayantibhai Patel and family with rocking SANEDO and wonderful rocking songs by Kinjal Dave, the event was concluded.

SUDCM Chairman Chhotalal Patel complimented the Rajesh Desai & SUDCM team for outperforming the expectation resulting in a successful event.
