Secretary’s Corner_08012013

The month of July is now behind us. Pres. Therese Montecer’s first month was a productive one. We Inducted four (4) new members namely: Nanie Madrasto, Gigi Rodriguez, Sam Alleje, and Cef (Jun) Bata. We only need one more to complete our commitment of five (5) new members for this Rotary Year. We have also raised USD 7,500 for the TRF and received pledges to complete our target USD 12,000 in Total TRF contributions. We have launched the second year of the Busog, Lusog, Talino Feeding Program at the Pinaglabanan Elementary School and initiated the BLT program with a second school, the San Juan Elementary School. Our WOW City Harvest Project is on-going for this Rotary Year while we have completed the CLE.  

With said accomplishments, District Governor Louie Ticman and his staff were pleased with our Club as conveyed during the Governor’s Visit last July 25 and the Governor’s speech at our Club Induction.

On the evening of July 25, our Officer’s and Director’s Induction was well attended – with meaningful representation from the following groups: Past District Governors and their spouses, First Class Presidents, Peace Builder Presidents, Visionary Presidents, and our partners in service, The Rotaract of PSBA Volunteers and the Interact of San Juan National High School.

For August, we will be requesting our new members to render their Classification Talks in meeting days when we do not have a guest speaker. We can also tap into the District’s Speaker’s Bureau for Rotary Information that will be aimed at educating our new members on the ways of Rotary.

Cheers and enjoy Rotary J
