The final date of our batch reunion will be this coming December 22-23, 2011. The venue is still under negotiations from the owners but rests assure that it’s in Tagum City.

I know that it is not new to you that annually we do celebrate and realized a batch reunion aptly dubbed as “Get Together Party”, the purpose of this activity is to strengthen camaraderie among members of the batch, ensure constant communication and to build a strong bond from one another; sharing new experiences and learning in life and to reach out to those members who are in need of help, support and guidance.

I was elected President for calendar year 2011-2012; I am very much willing to extend my utmost service to everyone. I thank you for your trust.

Board of Review for Eagle Scout Awards

It is with great honor and pride to be included as one of the panel members of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines – Tagum City Associate Council’s Board of Review for Eagle Scout Awards held just this day, November 5, 2011 at Sangguniang Panlungsod, Tagum City.

I was once an applicant of the most thrilling part of my life which is the Board of Review for Eagle Scout. As far as I can remember when Tagum City is still a part of the BSP – Davao del Norte Council we were gathered at BSP – Davao del Norte Council Office located at the back of the RDR Gymnasium for our final interview. Beforehand, we made a lot of preparations – we undertake a series of training every Saturday together with the other Eagle Scout applicants. We faced a lot of challenges and obstacles along our expedition just to pass the Board of Review. I even got to the point when I was told to quit Boy Scout and just focus on my academics but because of my commitment, determination and goal – I still pursue and continue my journey in the scouting movement and even achieve the Eagle Scout Rank – the highest rank being attained by a boy scout.

It is very overwhelming and self - fulfilling on the day of our awarding. It was held at the Molave Hotel and it was participated by our mentors, distinguished guest and famous personality in our locality. Sctr. Jose Rizal – Pangilinan was the one who pinned as the Eagle Scout medal. I am thankful to our very enthusiastic and energetic adviser Mr. Arnel Cabalan, to the members of the panel during our time, our parents and family for an unending support and guidance and most especially to our Almighty Father for the opportunity he has given unto us.

My warmest and sincerest congratulations to Sctr. Maquiling, Sctr. Cabrera, Sctr. Rosal, Sctr. Dumdum, Sctr. Manguilimotan, Sctr. Cinco, Sctr. Pacamo and Sctr. Calib-og for passing the Board of Review for Eagle Scout!

Soar High, Be Excellent and Mabuhay!
