President's Message
by Pres. Dante Verano
The Governor�s Visit last Thursday was an inspiring experience to our club. Though we are used to his presence as �one of us�, the feelings last meeting was a different one. We have DG Efren as an esteemed Guest of Honor doing his official function as Governor of District 3800. The visit provide special attention to some of our concerns and difficulties in achieving our establish plans and objectives. DG Efren motivated us to participate in service activities with outmost commitment. He was also there to personally recognize the outstanding contributions of Rotarians in the club as well as in the District. It was also an opportune time to meet and have some fellowship with some of District Officers, our Zone mates from Marikina and Rotarians from Baras Rizal together with their Mayor. It was indeed a success. This will not happen without the complete support of our officers, members and the spouses to whom I owed my gratitude. The spouses performed well to entertain us with their graceful dance in their beautiful costumes. The food was sumptuous, thanks to those who brought the wine, ice cream, fruits, chicharon that made the fellowship very enjoyable one. Maraming salamat sa inyong lahat.
Let�s cheer our Golf Team for bagging the 3rd place in the 3rd Leg of the District Golf Tournament. Congratulations to PP Onie, PP Boy, PT Edwin, Rtn. Noel, Rtn. Danny for a play well done. Likewise we have to congratulate our Spouse Bowlers: Sps. Miniang for bagging the First Place in High Game (scratch), First Place High Game (with handicap), and First Place in 3-Game series (scratch) and 3rd runner up in the Master Division. Sps. Miniang also bags the Championship Trophy in the Ladies Senior Master Championship of the Pasig Bowling Association. Spouse Corie Ong is the Champion in the Graded Master (scratch) and Graded Master (with handicap). We are really proud of you. Syempre let us acknowledge their coaches, PP Joe and PP Boy Ong.
This coming Sunday let us give our moral support to our hopeful Bowling Team in their quest for the championship rounds. Good luck to all our players.
