Hats off to Colin Javens and Sportsman dinner

May be it would have been another busy day in the life of a MBA but we left our impression on this 23th of May,2007 and made this day so special with our 3rd Cranfield Sportsman Dinner at the historical venue of Lord's Cricket Ground.When Colin came and presented to us at Cranfield, he touched our souls with his inspiring story of courage and determination and what really a person can achieve..inspite of all hurdles in a single life. Today was so special for this MBA year of ours because we chose to steal time from our busy selfish lives and do a bit for a noble cause.It was amazing how we managed to raise £37K on one night from our auction and raffles in aid of Colin Javen's Spinal research team.While most of us were busy building up our career,pursuing our ambitions.....looking out for new job switch...this one guy in our batch Martin Bursik worked relentlessly to make this night a success. For all the selfless efforts of Martin and our Sportsman committe, this was a night of bliss and inner satisfaction that our tiny efforts could create a ripple in the water....making this school in the small village of Bedford..out of nowwhere to be immortal in the hearts of people for times to come.
