RCMSL donated 100 bamboos to the Aeta community at Brgy. Bayanbayan, Dinalupihan, Bataan. The Aeta community is the RCC of RC Makati Bonifacio. We were suppose to do the actual planting however the road going up the mountain is not passable due to the rains. We just had a ceremonial turn of the bamboo to Brgy. Captain Antonio Manuel and some katutubo. We would like to thank Gen. Yano of the Philippine Army for assisting us in transporting the bamboo from the farm of Dr. Primo Gonzales to the Dinalupihan Bataan. Representing General Yano is Lt. Villanueva. This is just an initial delivery of the bamboo. If it will be successful, we will donate more bamboo to the katutubo for their livelihood.
RCMSL is one of the 29 Host Clubs of the RI Convention Launching last Nov. 8, 2007. 13 members of our club attended the event. Initially there were only 218 pre-registered but the actual attendees were almost 400. US Ambassador Kristie Kenney graced the launching and acknowledge Rotary of helping poor people and living up to its ideals of Service Above Self.
Every year, our club celebrates Halloween party. During halloween party we usually have a concept or a custome that we are going to wear. This year its Black and Orange. This is also our new member's initiation night. Baby rotarians are given their initiation rites but its all fun - no paddling here. Being a member of RC Makati San Lorenzo is not only serious work but also a lot of FUN!
