Graduates of Kasaragod’s LBS College of Engineering packed the Halcyon Embassy Suites in Alpharetta on October 24 for their second North American reunion. Alumni traveled from across the United States and Canada to attend the “Flash Forward” gathering, themed “Meet Again.”
The day began with a virtual session connecting former students to their old professors. That online meetup let everyone swap memories and catch up with the teachers who shaped their campus years. It set a warm tone for the hours ahead.
Cultural performances followed. Manoj Thekkumprath and Naisy John led a dance segment, while Jojo Joseph and Shajin Joseph drew laughs with a comedy skit titled “Akare Akare.” Games organized by Shikha Padmachandran Sunil, Reshmi Nair, Delphy Lever Johnson, and Gopakumar Achath kept the energy high. Remya Anilkumar and Gopakumar Achath handled hosting duties.
Food was a major highlight. Atlanta Cake World Restaurant served a full Kerala sadya and a traditional dinner that brought familiar flavors to the Georgia venue. The meal gave everyone a natural reason to linger and talk.
Stephen John took over later for a DJ night that lasted deep into the evening. Deepu Mathew captured the celebration on camera. The organizing team included Abraham George, Stephen Johnson, Reshmi Nair, Rekha Anil Nair, Remya Anilkumar, Shajin Joseph, Suprabha Shekaran, Stephen John, Vinod Nair, Manoj Thekkumprath, Bidu Kishan, Vinod Kumar, Antony Tharail, and Ajit Philip.
The reunion didn’t end there. The next morning, the group hiked Amicalola Falls, sharing stories from the night before. As they parted, many voiced hope for a third meet-up — this time in Seattle.
