A grand concept was finalized at the recent LOBA Regional Meet at Kottayam this February. The meet was attended by around 50 LOBA members and their families. The LOBARIUM concept (as it was dubbed) is a cluster of cottages on the banks of the breath-taking Vembanad lake, "of the LOBA, by the LOBA,for the LOBA". The regional meet saw the idea passed with thunderous applause and on the spot commitment of over Rs. 2,00,000 (,000). The target is Rs. 50,00,000 (,000) which will give all LOBA members (and family members) lifetime access to this resort! The cost for membership will be a mere (Rs. 5000) per head. LOBA has over 1000 registered members to date. More of this will be updated on the LOBAGLOBAL site in the near future.
