VISIT TO SSLC
By: Dir. Archie Reaño
October 14, 2009
Instead of having its Weekly meeting at Peninsula Manila, RCMN decided to grant the invitation of Stepping Stone Learning Resources and Therapy Center to conduct the 15th club meeting in their School which is located at #7419 Bernardino St. Guadalupe Viejo, Makati City. When PP Joe and I arrived at the center, my attention was caught by these two very special children (Oscar and Nhisa) who welcomed and accompanied us towards the function room. PP Tony Chong, PP Porong Herrera, IPP Klink Ang, PP Donnies Alas, Dir Bob Hecks were among those who attended the meeting. While waiting, President of SSLC Enrique Lagdameo (PP of RC Makati East) together with Dir. Aks Sebial (PP of RC Paranaque Central) shared some interesting information about Stepping Stone. The land which was given by the city of Makati is their new location and it was a first time for many of the Rotarians to visit there.

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.

Work is My True Passion
KARL STUART McKINNON McLEAN
Born in Gibraltar , August 1, 1955 where my dad ran Shell refinery then moved with my family to Hamburg, then London , followed by Holland where I spent 8 years of my life as my father was on the main board of Shell in London.
I went to a Dutch school which was fabulous as the Dutch are the “freeist” nation in the world. As class prefect I sat on the school board with teachers and parents and my vote had the same power as the teachers.
I played a lot of soccer and earlier cricket.
