I got a call last week from the Cebu City Government's Cultural and Historical Affairs Commission (CHAC) asking for my attendance for the December 14, 2012 meeting with the commissioners regarding my proposal to hold the Pedro Calungsod (John Paul II Celebration Exhibit 2012) on December 28 at the city's museum.
On the day of the meeting, the commissioners were in full attendance led by Cebu City Vice Mayor Joy Young who is also the chairman. I presented the concept of the exhibit to the body who were all very excited. Immediately thereafter, I got the full approval from all the commissioners.
It's official, the Pedro Calungsod (John Paul II Celebration Exhibit 2012) opens on December 28, 2012 at 10:00 AM at the Cebu City Museum and coincides with the Anniversary Culmination Party at 12:00 noon at the El Jardin of Montebello Villa Hotel, Cebu City Philippines. Both events are part of Cebu Stamp Club @ 15 Anniversary Culmination Event.
Thanks to all the CHAC commissioners and staff..

Cebu Stamp Club continues to be the premiere stamp collecting group in the Philippines and is among the most active clubs in the world today. My friends in Manila would tell me that there are no more stamp clubs in the country that has been doing monthly meetups, exhibits, philatelic promotions and activities. It is sad that this is happening to other stamp clubs. Unlike them, Cebu Stamp Club will prevail. In fact, we will be celebrating 15 years of continued philatelic promotion and activities on August 24, 2011.
Dubbed as Cebu Stamp Club @ 15, two major events are planned such as the Grand Reunion which will be held at the Montebello Villa Hotel, Cebu City on August 28, 2011 at 11:30 AM.
Members from 1996 until the present in formal wear will get to meet each other again. A program will be in place that will include dance and singing numbers, awarding of certificates, giving of giveaways and a stamp auction.
The lunch buffet consists of cucumber, shrimp & mango salad, fish fillet w/ blackbean sauce, chicken pork adobo w/ potato, mixed vegetables w/ oyster sauce, rice, lechon, chicken inasal, chocolate roll, and soda drinks and red wine. Snacks will be chicken sandwiches with fries and drinks.
Cebu Stamp Club members who would like to join the celebration just need to send inquiries for registration details to cebustampclub_inc@yahoo.com
