Aleesha, Sarayu, Aanshi and Archana prepare for the Kummi Dance, a folk dance special to the Pongal Festival

Tamil Thanks Giving Day (Pongal)

The Durham Tamil Association celebrated their Thanksgiving last month on January 16th at the Pickering Recreation Complex with the community, the Mayor of Pickering, Dave Ryan, council members from both Pickering and Ajax and other dignitaries. Pongal is a celebration that honours and thanks the sun god, as the sun represents life and a good harvest. The group celebrated in prayer, song and dance and invited all to share in the Tamil heritage and celebration. For more information about the group please call 905-428-7007, or email: info@durhamtamils.com
