Assam 2009 will be held in Colorado during the July 4th weekend of 2009. An Organizing Committee has been formed with Mr. Ganesh Bhuyan of Westminster, Colorado as the Advisor. The site for Assam 2009 will be selected shortly; preliminary work has already begun in this regard. The Organizing Committee takes this opportunity to extend an early welcome to all Assamese individuals and families in North America and beyond.
The Organizing Committee gratefully acknowledges a generous commitment by Mr. Biraj Bhuyan of Norristown, Pennsylvania, to pay for the travel of the invited artist from Assam to Colorado. The invited artist is National (India) Award winning singer Mrs. Tarali Sarma, who graced Assam 2008 in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. Here is a link to an invitation by Mrs. Tarali Sarma to Assam 2009: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKaND0XRfcI.
