Secretary’s Corner_10252012

‘FDG’ Benny Pe invited a guest speaker at last week’s meeting who spoke on ‘Investing in the Stock Market.’ It was a well attended meeting with 15 guests and 18 members, Jasmine Room was almost filled to capacity.

We also inducted two new members to the club last week, our guest speaker Mr. Jay Penaflor of the Philippine Stock Exchange, and Ms. Nora Lajom – a ‘balik’ San Juan Rotarian. Welcome to the club!

Our meetings have been experiencing poor attendance from our members lately. Most noticeable were the absence of PP Noni Topacio who was placed under ‘house arrest’ by his doctor, and AG Doray Giorla who had to administer the wake of her deceased sister at the Arlington Memorial Chapels.

Rotarian Therese Montecer has finally accepted the position of President Elect, and whose term as President begins July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014. Understanding the demands of her current position as Area Head of Allied Bank, her hand-picked officers and directors have vowed to support her during her term as President – in both Club and District functions.

Today let us listen to Dr. Al Lopez who will render his Classification Talk and speak on the subject, “Stem Cell Therapy.”

Cheers and enjoy RotaryJ
