NYC Marathon – Breakfast Reception, Nov. 4th, 2006

| Open Letters, Special Announcements

Hello All,

You will be glad to know that 3 Zoroastrians, Jamshed Ghadiali, Firdosh Dotivala, and Sohrab Mirza from LA, are running in the NY City Marathon race this year on November 5, 2006. Please go and cheer them on the race route or watch them on your local TV channel.

New York Zoroastrians have decided to hold a short breakfast reception in their honor on Saturday, November 4, 2006 between 11 AM and Noon. The reception will be held at

150 West End Avenue, Apt. # 9F
New York, NY, 10023

(through the courtesy of Mithoo and Khurshed Birdie).  It is very important to know the number of people attending the reception. It is also very important that we adhere to the time schedule as the Marathon participants have to leave at Noon on that day to attend to other business for the following day. 

Please send your name and number of people attending the reception to the ZAGNY President via email to president@zagny.org  no later than November 1, 2006.

Thanks,

Homi D. Gandhi
President, ZAGNY
