Philippine Chapter Get-Together and 25th Year Celebration
The Philippine Chapter had another well-attended and exciting Annual Get-together on 18 November at the EDR at ADB Headquarters. Over 160 members and spouses and some guests, mostly in their Filipiana attire, came and had an enjoyable evening with many going home with raffle prizes. Country Coordinator Gam de Armas called the business meeting to order at 5:35 p.m., a bit delayed because of the free picture taking at the photo booth, courtesy of Jess Arnuco, to have a momento of the get-together elebrating the 25th anniversary of the Philippine Chapter. After the invocation delivered by Leonie Francisco, Gam welcomed everyone and introduced the new members present while the names of the other members that joined the chapter this year were being shown on the screen.
