May 2010: Tara Na Sa Piyesta at Bumoto!!!

During its March meeting, the Board decided to coincide the election of the 2010-12 Board of Directors with the holding of the Filcom's Fiesta at Kapiolani Park. Mas masaya, sabi ng Board members sa kanilang pakana. And so it was.

Witness the dedication, folks: Lilia Santiago, Board Secretary with Debs Robillard (behind the scenes) earlier concocted the UPAA display at the booth. Delmar and honorary alum hubby, Joe Magno, snuck into Kapiolani way too early in the morning to assure a parking spot. Prexy Alma and board members Jane Misola and Jun Rivera with their spouses Ben and Cora, came to help, make tsika and siyempre, to stay, enjoy the festivities and eat!! Other UPAA members dropped by to cast their ballots. Siyempre, because it is also a state election year, many politicos came, shook hands with our able cast and took pictures.

At the end of the day, the following Board of Directors, officers and members, were elected.

President: Debs Telan Robillard
President-elect: Carolyn Weygan-Hildebrand
Secretary: Norma Domingo
Treasurer: Jun Rivera
Auditor: Dennis Bondocoy
PRO: Lilia Santiago
Neighbor Island Reps: CJ Ancheta (Maui) and Oscar Portugal (Kauai)
Members: Delmar Magno, Jane Misola, Melody Calisay, Ariel Agcaoili,and Unc Homer Rabara

Congratulations, New Board, and may your term be full of joy, energy and accomplishments!

To the booth-niks: Good job! 'Yan ang UP!
