They came up with a noble idea and executed it to perfection.

| The Rocking Republicans Team |
It all started with a plan to organize a mini marathon in HMWC on the occasion of republic day.
Team started its work by making the community aware. Initial response was luke warm and hence they had a target of around 50-75 people participating and charity collection of around Rs 5000.

Soon the number of people crossed 80 and then it reached nearly 150. They beat their own charity contribution target by 4 times and could collect Rs20000 for FAME India. All this without dipping into any cultural committee fund.

Everyone enjoyed the event and participated enthusiastically. There was overwhelming response for 5KM Marathon. Most of the people started with 3KM in mind and completed 5KM. Everyone from children to senior citizens were extremely happy with a sense of achievement.

The team completed another event successfully. They complement each other with their strengths.
Rebulicans team has organized many events since the time they started the cultural committee activities in HMWC. Right from the day when funds were scarce to starting the trend for Mega New year celebrations, they have done it all.
