‘Tombola’ is a popular social game played for entertainment across the world in various settings. Inspired by an idea from the current Commandant, Tombola Night was organized at the Station Officers’ Mess on 19th October 2024, with the participation of several retired senior officers, SLMA officers, and their families.
This social gathering offered a refreshing break from the busy military routine, allowing participants to interact and enjoy each other’s company through various games, songs, and shared food and beverages. The highlight of the evening was the Tombola lottery game, which saw enthusiastic participation. Five fabulous prizes were awarded to the winners by the Commandant, Major General ULJS Perera RSP USP psc, during the prize-giving ceremony.
The event provided an opportunity for the Commandant and officers to warmly welcome retired senior officers residing in and around the area, reaffirming that they remain an integral part of our community and are never forgotten.
The event concluded with a feast at the Mess, leaving everyone with a unique and cherished experience.
