Like a shepherd
tending his flock, the batch president, Alberto Bercasio, led the batch officers
to go farther out to places where more batch mates can be reached. And so the batch
caravan went farther up to the National Capital Region, 400 kilometers north of
Naga City, only to gather more of the batch mates living in the metro.
Initiating the
first caravan meeting at his place in Pamplona, Bercasio led the next caravan south
to Pili, then north to Calabanga, all in Camarines Sur, before going to the NCR
on Apr. 24, 2015 where they were given a very warm reception by batch mates
from the NCR, more particularly by Ronald Mateo Roco and Ricardo Abelardo, Jr.
who sponsored the food, drinks and venue.

Gathering twenty-eight
batch members to the occasion, the caravan meeting in Makati, which is the
fourth of such gatherings held at different places, drew a total of sixty-four unique
attendance by batch mates. The number represents more than one class section during
their last year in high school which has an average class membership of 47
students. The caravan meetings are being held to gather and bring the batch mates
into active participation as the batch gears for the 2016 grand alumni
homecoming where the batch will be its main sponsor. For the caravan meetings attendance report, please see post at our chalk board page.
The gathering was
held evening of Apr. 24, 2015 at The Open Space in Bel Air 2, Makati City.
