Thai New Year Fellowship and Rod Nam Dam Hua

CMIRC members joined in the beautiful Lanna New Year tradition of Rod Nam Dam Hua, paying respect to senior Rotarians and sharing blessings for the Thai New Year.

The evening was a warm reminder of the deep cultural roots that shape life in Northern Thailand and the fellowship that connects Rotary members across clubs and generations. Through the traditional water-pouring ceremony, members expressed gratitude, respect, and good wishes to senior Rotarians.

A special thank you goes to Inspiration Officer Areeya Suksiri for helping make the evening meaningful and memorable. Appreciation also goes to Khun Nhoom, owner of Lamour Cafe and Restaurant, for welcoming everyone so warmly.

Events like this reflect one of Rotary’s greatest strengths: fellowship rooted in respect, friendship, and shared purpose. As we begin the Thai New Year, CMIRC is grateful for the senior members, friends, and partner clubs who continue to guide and inspire our work.
