Corner_03072013
Three events last week caused calling off our meeting last
Thursday namely: the donation of food and clothing for the fire victims in
Barangay St. Joseph and the donation of Stethoscopes for the San Juan City
Hospital on Feb. 23; the donation of laboratory equipment, projector and
computers for the chemistry lab of the San Juan National High School on Feb.
28; and the District Conference 2013 on March 1 & 2 at the SMX Convention
Centre - Mall of Asia Complex.
The donation to the fire victims and San Juan National High
School were both personally received by Mayor Guia Gomez in behalf of the
constituents. The Mayor was kind enough to give us a tour of the new City Hall
last Feb. 23.
The following members attended DISCON 2013: Pres Jojo
Bacarro, PE Therese Montecer, AG Doray Giorla, PDG Pepe Peralta and spouse
Thesy, PP Gina Sanchez, PP Noni Topacio, PP Pol Leoncio, PP Manny Guia, PP Nan
Sallan, PN Rose Caoc, and I.
We would like to recognize Pres. Jojo Bacarro and AG Doray for
their participation in the Governor’s Ball of DISCON 2013. In the same thread,
kudos goes to Pres Jojo, AG Doray and PP Gina who represented our club in the
Talent Night competition where the San Juan Zone garnered 3rd Place.
The Marikina Zone wound up in 2nd Place while the Mandaluyong Zone
was this year’s Talent Night champions.
One highlight of the DISCON was the breakfast meeting
between the incumbent Presidents and the President Elects early during the
second day of DISCON 2013. This meeting has initiated the gradual turnover of
the helm from Pres Jojo to PE Therese Montecer.
The SMX proved to be a better venue for DISCON 2013 compared
to past conferences that were held at hotel ballrooms.
Today’s meeting marks our first meeting for the month of
March and PE Therese is expected to announce the officers and service directors
for the next Rotary Year.
Cheers and enjoy Rotary J
Sec/PP Jovie
