Southern California: 2012

The AFE–ADB Southern California (SoCal) Chapter welcomed the summer at Frank Bonelli Park in San Dimas, California. Bert Gesmundo, one of the organizers, picked the East Shore Fishing area as our picnic site. The spot showcased the beautiful view of the lake. The weather was perfectly set for fun games, a sumptuous array of Filipino cuisine, photo sessions, and wonderful families and friends; plus a mini fashion show to parade Pinoy attire and adornment to remember Philippine Freedom (Independence) Day.

Australia: A Wiseman’s Retreat

Twenty four ”wisemen” (and their partners) of the Australian Chapter retreated to the beautiful river land of Wiseman’s Ferry, 40 km northwest of Sydney, New South Wales (NSW) on 10–13 October 2011, for the Chapter’s 6th Annual Reunion and Annual General Meeting (AGM). The scenery was stunning, as the Australis Resort overlooks a golf course nestled between two arms of the Hawkesbury River, with towering sandstone cliffs on the opposite banks.
