GO FOR GOLD IN MEMBERSHIP DEVELOPMENT
By Sec. Bench Sy Chu
August 20, 2008
Despite continuous downpour, RCMNers trooped to Dusit Thani for our weekly meet. Rotarian Mac McLean gave the invocation that afternoon, with PP Ed Mijares moderating. During the singing of our National Anthem, PP Ed suggested singing it in English. I actually thought he was kidding but apparently, as Rotarian Vince Tan confirmed, there indeed was an English version of Lupang Hinirang. Some of the “more senior” RCMNers even offered a few lines of the English version. Indeed, it was a surprise.
IPP Joe Reano reported on the successful golf fellowship held recently at the Alabang Country Club. He enjoined the group to come up with more fellowship activities to prosper friendship and camaraderie. President Klink plans to do another, more organized golf fellowship soon. He likewise encouraged the group to go into other interests like badminton, shooting, etc.

L.E.AP. Leaders Congress: A Story Of Hope
Beginnings…This congress was born and conceptualized over coffee sometime in October 2003 when then President Ma. Christina “Tina” Herrera, her husband Porong Herrera and then Vice President Corazon “Cora” Tan were brainstorming at Starbucks Katipunan for other club projects. They felt that the future of our country lies in the development of young, unjaded and uncorrupted leaders whose idealism and values, if properly focused, will propel us to “LEAP forward” towards a better nation.
President's Corner
Recruiting New Members
Dear fellow RCMNers,
Your board of directors has adopted a measure to help address a major obstacle preventing new members from joining the club – sticker shock.
Beginning immediately, new recruits will pay only half of the regular membership dues for the first year. That fee would cover the Rotary International dues, although not the administrative costs. And like all members, the Baby Rotarian will pay for the regular weekly lunch.
