NBO Qaranqasho Carnival set for August 4 at Qurum   

Oman Daily Observer - 03 August, 2012

National Bank of Oman's (NBO) Qaranqasho Carnival will be held at Qurum Complex (previously CCC) in Al Qurum, on August 4, from 8 pm to 11 pm.

The ground floor of Qurum Complex will be brightly decorated to attract crowds to join in and enjoy NBO’s Qaranqasho Carnival activities!

Qaranqasho is a very special celebration held for grown-up children, who complete their first 14 days of fasting. This encourages them and other children to go in for fasting every year.
NBO always takes pride in organising unique and exciting events for customers, as the bank believes it is very important to provide opportunities for members of the community to meet informally in a casual and relaxed atmosphere. NBO's Carnivals are an ideal opportunity for children of all ages to have an entertaining and enjoyable evening out, with family and friends.

A host of interesting and exciting activities including face painting; magic shows, family activities; games; on-the-spot-prizes, and much more, will entertain and keep the visitors involved during the entire evening.

Speaking on the occasion, Harsh Munjal, NBO's General Manager — Retail, Private and Overseas Banking Division said: 'Ramadhan Kareem to the nation. NBO is delighted to provide a fun evening especially for the kids. It is indeed satisfying to see them enjoying themselves with friends and family. It is our attempt to reach out to families in all corners of the Sultanate. Our carnivals will continue to be held in different locations, to address the needs of our valuable customers'.
