Mighty Stallions - Celebrations '09 Champions

Dear Mighty Ones’,

Words cannot describe the amount of joy and sense of achievement which I feel or any true-blue Stallion would feel on the sensational ‘Championship’ Win by the Mighty Stallions!
Or, maybe I have a word…
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

This looooong word might somewhat justify the depth and meaning behind our Chimerical Win…through days of gathering nominations, participations - amidst crazy overlapping events, long hours in trying to maintain a good balance between work and Celebrations ’09, skipped meals, wondrous Wins along with some dramatic Losses, our temporary lows, our Never-Say-Die attitude…due to which we bounced back together as a team…and finally our Towering Win!

Congratulations to each Stallion!!

Along with our Super Stallions who Won individual/multiple events and took long strides in gathering/bagging all those points in BULK, thereby, advancing us ahead metamorphically, I wish to thank…

… our dynamic Jockeys (Anand Chagamreddy, Kiran Marakani, Leena Canjivaram, Madhulika Khandavalli, Pallavi Phene, Samuel Remus, Satish Malavalli & Sirish Konda) who Galloped us like the Wind, generated the Right Atmosphere for our team spirit to grow in stature, created Winning Teams and ensured that we never wavered from our goal…and kept racing ahead amidst all the highs and lows…

… our cozy lil’ ‘Gang’ that formed during the ‘Retro’ theme, comprising of Pramila Thomas, Lakshmi Malladi, Rupa Umesh, Bidisha Sarkar, Revathi Rangachari who added the right fuel to enable our little pyre of ‘Team Spirit’ (that we’re now well known for), to spread like a ‘Forest Fire’…

…our fantastic Stallions below, some of whose association started out first as ‘Rescuers’ (replacements/volunteers) in various events/competitions for which the original participants had backed out or when we were running short of candidates …and who soon became inherent part of most of our events, themes etc. and took our team to a different high, altogether.

Thank you…

Saishyam Pasupuleti, Vijay Nimmagadda, Manohar Punna, Kundan Gupta, Arjun Donala, Indira Reddy, Navaneetha Surakanti, Navin Kornaya, Satyashree Bolloju, Alok Verma, Anil Bhagavatula, Arun Jannela, Chaitanya Vadlamani, Govinda Addala, Krishna Kyatham, Ramya Chintaluri, Rashid Syed, Shravya Cherukupalli, Srinivas Gajre, Sowjanya Nandagari, Tahseenuddin Patel, Vishal Trivedi for being there for our team in various capacities, with bursting energy

Yeshwanth Reddy, Gopala Krishna for finding time out for the team amidst busy schedules, and for being a wonderful boost to us through your Participations/Wins

Satish Malavalli for always being there for us inspite of working during US timings, and for encouraging us, along with your team in Inside Sales - Nitin Kasera, Srihari Chundru, Harish Bevara, Chandrashekar Bushpala

Jude David, Sunil Bandari and Davood Khan, dear Stallions near my cubicle, who always rose to the occasion and dived in as rescuers (anytime you were called in for), whenever we were running out of nominations/participants

Prasath Kalidas, for providing wonderful ideas, able guidance and being for the team even from off-site, @client location

Srikanth Kanaparthy, who apart from being a very key Rescuer/Stallion, was one of the most sporty Stallions, who was bold enough to get into mode of Ms. World during the ‘Disguise’ theme, for which he was chosen a Winner as well

Anil Miyapuram, Sagar Gunupati for helping out in co-ordinating a couple of events, inspite of your tight project/timelines

…and finally, Nagaraju Vunnava – our Nagu Sir, whose hand was always over our heads… during the times when we raced ahead or momentarily tripped… with your ever-present encouragement and soothsaying about our incredulous Win!

In case I’ve missed out anybody’s name, do know that everybody’s contribution was invaluable - as a Participant, Winner, Jockey, Cheerer, Guide, Volunteer…or even those who knowingly/unknowingly resisted participation/involvement, as that meant that we Jockeys tried that much harder to stick to our resolve about racing the Mighty Stallions faster than the rest of the pack!

Finally, I would like to conclude by saying that -
’Talent wins games, but TeamWork and TeamSpirit wins Championships'

…What might have seemed as mere words in the beginning, came true to life and was possibly the inherent ‘Truth’ behind our Humongous Win…Our overwhelming TeamWork & Team Spirit!

Thank you, Stallions…for making that happen…
God Bless…

Regards,

Sudeshna Sirkar
