GARCIA iii Your Majesties : We are now on the 2nd Quarter of the Rotary year, and October is Voca- tional Service month. Let us for this month focus on efforts to promote and foster high ethical standards in all business and professions, recognize all useful professions and dignify each Rotarian’s occupation as an opportu- nity to serve. Let us concentrate on doing our Vocational Service Projects ! So far so good! Everything has been running like clockwork! ART FROM THE HEART The bag-painting contest initiated by newly chartered RC Greater Mandaluyong was a resounding success. Indeed, CP Mila is starting to show up the Mandaluyong motherclub that the daughter club can be bigger and better than the parent! Let us congratulate CP Mila for a job well done! Great job! RYLA 2011 D3800 conducted RYLA 2011 at Pranjetto Hills in Tanay over the weekend. It was a real learning experience, according to the testimonials of the participants. Our New Generations Chair, Oscar Bautista, and RYLA Chair Susan Bautista along with Majestic President Christy Fuentes and the MANPASAN host club should be congratulated and thanked profusely for a job well done! I am certain it was an experience that will long be remembered by the participants. OCTOBERFIESTA San Juan Magilas showed its organizational prowess with an Octoberfiesta that will long be talked about and remembered. There were more than 750 registrants to the event that overflowed the Makati Sports Club ballroom! They ran out of food, and ran out of seats, but did not run out of fun fun fun! Congratulations to CP Sunday Pineda and Majestic President Jojo Cartujano and the other members of RC San Juan Magilas for a great job! I’ll be sending out more thank you and congratulatory messages after I complete my Governor’s Visits this week. Meanwhile, thank you and maraming salamat to all the host clubs and the participants.
