The art of words inherits the magnificent prowess of speaking out the thoughts of the writer. As you read through an article, letter by letter, word by word, phrase by phrase and paragraphs pass by, you are indeed stepping in to live the experience within the writing and thus nourishing your knowledge too.
The 10th of October 2015 remarked another glorious step in the legacy of RACUOK as it remarked the beginning of a new journey. Since its initiation step by step, the voyage conquered milestones from one to ten, then hundred and now BEYOND 500.
Yes, the Official Blog Page of the Rotaract Club of University of Kelaniya which was launched on the 10th of October 2015 has pursued a glorious journey, establishing itself as a space of echoing out loud the legacy of the club.
Currently, as the blog surpasses the frontier of 500 articles it consists of various unique segments for distinguished content nourishing it with insights. The project articles of each and every project organized by avenues are published under the respective avenue with a descriptive article providing the reader a virtual experience as the writing takes you down the memory lane of the project. The blog also presents a summarized update of RACUOK monthly and currently is published quarterly as a newsletter. The blog is indeed a stage of presenting the vibrant performance of the club throughout. Not limiting there the Creative Corner sparkles the flair of words of Rotaractors who think out of the box with the essence of creativity and knowledge. Additionally, the blog page contains the RACUOK & I segment which is a must to enrich one on what is Rotaract all about including the Rotaract Facts, My Rotaract Ride sections, providing the community an opportunity to enhance their understanding on the Rotaract image. And not forgetting the SDGs and Rotary Focus areas the blog presents a descriptive insight of them too. Each and every element is a spell that casts the magic of uniqueness into the blog.

The agenda comprised of spotlighting the untiring commitment of the members of the avenue who have extended their effort to make the Blog of RACUOK unique.

Additionally, the members of ‘Chronicle’, the first quarterly newsletter of RACUOK were also awarded certificates for being a part of this initiative of the avenue which presented the performance and flair of the club during the first quarter of the RI year 2022-23.

What’s a celebration without a CAKE?!
So as a token of celebration, the cake was cut by the Editors of the club for the RI year 2022-23 as the Exco and Board of Directors joined with much exultation of being a part of this glorious evening.
Indeed it was a momentous celebration of togetherness as this achievement will not be a reality if not for the dedication, effort and commitment of each and every past Editor of RACUOK. And not forgetting each and every writer who penned down their thoughts and art of words making the blog a magnificent space of creativity, knowledge and insights.
