Seeing your high school friends for the first time in 25 years? The feeling is indescribable! It’s like your 16 all over again! Last year, my younger sister, Trixie, was witness to our Davao City High School batch 1990’s hosting of the premier public secondary school’s annual homecoming.
This year, on December 18, 2016, it will be her turn. DCHS Batch ’91 has got all their gears ready for their hosting…and guess what? It’s like they are all set and roaring! (Hmmm, better than ours?! We’ll see. Hehe!)
Part of their activities in renewing old friendships, they have been meeting regularly for coffee and discussing things that they could do to raise funds for their event but most importantly, how they could give back.
So last December 4, 2016, all 21 classmates and batchmates came together to visit Lolos and Lolas of Cu Su Gian Home for the Aged in Buhangin. I can just imagine how happy they have made them merely by their presence. Terry , one of their batchmates, put on a clown costume and did some magic! Grannies also joined in a singing contest! To put a smile on their faces is just priceless…
Another one of their planned activities happened last December 2. It was a Culture and Arts Forum conducted by the now renowned artist/sculptor, Kublai Millan, who is also a member of the DCHS 1991 hosting batch. Those who took part in this forum where the Visual Arts students of the school itself.
Four more days to go and it’s homecoming once again! For our dear alumni, please text 0922 832 8316 and 0905 444 1108 for your tickets!
Watch out for more announcements from this vigorous batch! SAVE THE DATE: Dec. 18, 2016, City High new gym, 4:00 pm. THE 2016 CITY HIGH GRAND ALUMNI HOMECOMING. COME HOME!!!(Addie Borbon)
