It was a 3 for 1
event, interpreted; “Three seminars in one afternoon” or “Three seminars for
the price of one.” Hosted by the Rotary Club of San Juan and the Rotary E-club
of San Juan 3800, held at the historic Kalayaan Hall of Club Filipino, 209
delegates from District 3800 (43 Peace Builder Presidents) experienced its
first Seamless Seminar in what normally would have been three separate sessions
(each charging participants PHP 300 per seminar) was offered all together for just
PHP 300. What a bargain!
Three Past District
Governors from three other Rotary Districts were resource speakers namely:
(speaker and their topic) PDG Ursula “Chit” Lijauco, D3820, Public Image; PDG
Rolando “Oyan” Villanueva, D3790, Membership; PDG Roberto “Bobby” Viray, D3790,
The Rotary Foundation – all Coordinators of their special fields for their
respective district – all high calibre speakers, all in one afternoon. What a
deal!
The room was packed,
the food sumptuous (everyone had their fill), and there were raffle prizes
donated by the generous Rotarians of D3800. That’s value for money!
In summary, the event
organizers (DGE Lirio Sandoval, ISG Augie Soliman, IDSG Danilo Santos, IPP Gina
Sanchez, PDG Pepe Peralta) ascertained that participants learned about the
three important Rotary subjects, were fed well, immensely entertained, and went
home smiling. Now that’s Service Above Self!
