PHILIPPINE ROTARACTORS CELEBRATE 40TH WORLD ROTARACT WEEK
The Philippine celebration of this year’s World Rotaract Week culminated as rotaractors and rotarians from seven districts gathered in Marikina Sports Complex last March 16, 2008.
With the theme “RAC Life Begins @ 40”, the multi-district event honored the chartering of the first Rotaract Club in North Carolina, USA in March 13, 1968, forty years ago.
Chaired by DRR Adette Arce of District 3800, rotaractors from Districts 3780, 3790, 3810, 3820, 3830 and 3860 flocked the sports complex for a night of fellowship, fun and a showcase of talents as participating districts had their presentations.
The gathering highlighted the recognition of outstanding Rotaract alumni, whose invaluable contribution to Philippine Rotaract’s development and their professional achievements brought inspiration to the young rotaractors in their respective districts. Majority of the awardees are former rotaractors and now rotarians.
The awardees were:
PE Johnny Yu, PDRR/ PP Theresa Sula, and PDRR/Rtn. Edwin Marcos of D3780;
PP Gigi Estalilla, of D3790; Rtr. Paolo H. Rivera, PP Enrique G. Santos, DRC Perfecto Bernad and DGE Virgilo Farcon, of D3800; SDG Edison “Magic” Ong, of D3810,
PP Andy Abuso, of D3820, and Mr. Joel Mallillin, of D3830.
Gracing the event and delivered their messages of inspiration were D3800 Governor, DG Marcos Hermoso and Marikina Vice Mayor Marion Andres.
Every year, Rotaract Clubs worldwide celebrate the World Rotaract Week (WRW) by partnering with their sponsoring Rotary clubs through different activities and projects.
