May is the most colorful month of the year because Sri Lankan<br />
Buddhists celebrate the Vesak festival. Likewise Serendib Toastmaster<br />
Club celebrated Vesak Festival with glamour. The annual Vesak Dansala<br />
is a foremost event among them. In effect dansals are centers that offer<br />
food and drink, to visitors, free. Sri Lankan phenomenon of dansala<br />
(open house), occupies a special niche due to its profusion, its variegated<br />
aspects, the enthusiasm and the fervor it engenders and, above all, due<br />
to its innovative manifestations year after year. Everyone’s idea was to do<br />
something different than in the previous year.So this year we were able<br />
to do an ice cream danasala. Not only we helped our community but also<br />
raised funds for people in Sri Lanka.<br />
