Santa Clarita Mayor Jason Gibbs and Los Angeles Consul General Edgar Badajos were the guests of honor. Both delivered a very inspiration message which certainly inspired the viewers at the event. Mayor Gibbs performed the installation and Consul General Badajos joined him for the congratulatory recognition.
President Jacqueline Martinez shared a footprint of the Board's agenda for the year. A plan to increase the association membership, to support Filipino business entrepreneurs and to increase community engagement, among others. She strongly believes that the plans set forth are achievable due to her great confidence with the men and woman of the Board, duly sworn to deliver their agenda.
The night's spectacle continued with professional red carpet photo shoot, exciting entertainment and plenty of dancing.
In the words of Past President Fred Bertulfo, work hard but don't forget to play as well, laughter makes work easier and creates bond among peers, a recipe for success and longevity.
