The ACNA Convention<br />

The 10 th ACNA Convention was held at the Newark Hilton<br />

Hotel on September 3-5, 2010. Delegates, Families and<br />

Friends from the 23 alumni associations <strong>of</strong> the US and<br />

Canada gathered during the Labor Day weekend. The<br />

Convention was graced by the presence <strong>of</strong> APO USA<br />

National President Maggie Katz and APO <strong>Phi</strong>lippines National<br />

President Mel Adriano. The three-day affair included a<br />

Welcome Fellowship and Talent Night on Friday, the<br />

Convention Proper on Saturday and the Election and Bidding<br />

<strong>of</strong> the next Convention on Sunday. The Going Away Brunch<br />

was held at the nearby Goldilocks Restaurant.<br />

Head <strong>of</strong> Delegation President Lito Tarculas, CRC<br />

Chairman Mar Garchitorena, Director Tony Amon, Past COB<br />

Roehl Reyes and Past President Art Rivera represented<br />

APOGLA. PP Troy Agagon and GLA Stalwart Ophel Amon<br />

served as Alternate Delegates. We participated fully and well<br />

in the deliberations and discussions and helped keep the<br />

proceedings in line. Bro. Mar so eloquently presented the<br />

proposals to the CBL that will be incorporated and<br />

implemented.<br />

There were also Chapter Reunions and Hometown<br />

gatherings held during the weekend with different programs<br />

<strong>of</strong> service and giving back to their chapters and provinces. It<br />

was wonderful to note that the essence <strong>of</strong> APO is getting<br />

into the hearts <strong>of</strong> everyone and allowing us to fellowship and<br />

work with one another for a better world to live.<br />

The North vs. South Ryder Cup Golf Tournament<br />

Another event held during the Labor Day Weekend was<br />

the Biennial Golf Tournament between Northern and<br />

acna acna s sstr<br />

Southern California. South Chairman Mar Garchitorena and<br />

North Chairman Cesar Garingan made sure that their teams<br />

had the best players competing. South Captain Bobet Lara<br />

was sidelined by foot injury so he watched the matches at<br />

the gallery stand! The first round was held on Thursday,<br />

September 2 and featured the Team Play format, which saw<br />

the Northerners, take an early lead and beat the Southerners.<br />

On the second day <strong>of</strong> Match Play, a great battle <strong>of</strong> wits and<br />

skills saw the South Team overcome the deficit and trounced<br />

the North for a Final aggregate score <strong>of</strong> 16-11. On our flight,<br />

South Manny Martinez was up against North Ben Dayao<br />

while I had North Mel Cancino. Manny beat Ben 4 Up 3 holes<br />

to go while I beat Mel 5 up 4 holes to go!<br />

The APOGLA Family Escapade<br />

On Saturday morning <strong>of</strong> September 4, the APOGLA family,<br />

stormed nearby HomeTown Buffet Newark for the first order<br />

President’s Message<br />

The recent ACNA<br />

Convention was quite tense<br />

for me, but ‘only’ during the<br />

BOD meeting where I was to<br />

represent the whole <strong>of</strong><br />

APOGLA to deliberate on our<br />

position against APOHA. I<br />

explained and tried to<br />

convince them - for good<br />

reasons - that APOHA’s<br />

recognition should be null and<br />

void for it has not complied<br />

with the necessary<br />

requirements. Somehow, it was to no avail. Brothers and<br />

Sisters that we all are (supposedly), everyone in the room<br />

wants us to work on forgiveness, peace and to have<br />

harmonious relationships with everyone involved.<br />

Nevertheless, I delivered our position and our sentiment why<br />

we oppose APOHA’s recognition by ACNA.<br />

Every ACNA Convention brings or provides many different<br />

kinds <strong>of</strong> excitement and fanfare to APO Brothers, Sisters<br />

and our familial members. The recent convention was no<br />

different. With GLA’s one hundred percent Delegate<br />

participation, the convention was successful. We had a great<br />

time and at the same time accomplished some important<br />

APO ACNA matters, namely: we have accomplished the<br />

approval <strong>of</strong> necessary recommended amendments to<br />

APOPHIL by-laws that will make ACNA and APOPHIL CBL<br />

compatible to each other. Although this is only the first step,<br />

there are still much work to be done before this will become<br />

a reality.<br />

Please join me in congratulating our Brothers and Sisters<br />

from APOGLA who got into different positions in ACNA and<br />

the Librado I Ureta Foundation as well, namely; Brod Roehl<br />

Reyes for ACNA’s 2nd Vice-President; for the LIU Foundation,<br />

Brod Art Rivera was elected as Secretary and Sis<br />

Emma Galang as Treasurer. On a later development, Brod<br />

Francis Franco was named Chairman <strong>of</strong> ARNA Comelec.<br />

I am also proud to announce to you that APOGLA won,<br />

unopposed, the hosting <strong>of</strong> the APO ACNA 11th Biennial<br />

Convention in 2012. In this regard, during our September<br />

11 Execom and BOD joint meeting, everyone agreed that<br />

Brod Art Rivera will be the Overall Chairman <strong>of</strong> the<br />

Convention which he later accepted without any hesitation.<br />

Let’s give Brod Art a big round <strong>of</strong> applause.<br />

Brod Roehl Reyes, as the 2nd Vice President <strong>of</strong> ACNA,<br />

one <strong>of</strong> his primary functions is to be in-charge <strong>of</strong> the ACNA<br />

Convention. So, let us join hands and help these two Brothers<br />

make the 11th ACNA Convention a very memorable<br />

celebration and, as usual, one that is for the books!<br />

Moving on to our next activities, this Saturday, September<br />

18, will be our presentation <strong>of</strong> candidates. To those who want<br />

to serve our beloved APOGLA, I am encouraging everyone to<br />

attend and let your voices be heard. Our COMELEC is ready<br />

to assist you. Our Executive positions and the Board <strong>of</strong><br />

Directors’ position is open for anyone qualified. ‘Kung hindi<br />

ngayon, kailan pa’?<br />

Fourth quarter is almost here. October: our GMM,<br />

Operation Gratitude, Election <strong>of</strong> Officers and Halloween party<br />

for our APO Kids. More information will be announced later.<br />

November is our Thanksgiving Celebration and Awards Night.<br />

December is one <strong>of</strong> our most awaited celebrations <strong>of</strong> the<br />

year: our Christmas/APO Anniversary Party and induction<br />

<strong>of</strong> our new set <strong>of</strong> Officers. Our respective Chairpersons <strong>of</strong><br />

APOGLA President 2010<br />

One Vision, One Future


BOARD OF DIRECTORS MESSAGE<br />

By Bro. Tony Amon – <strong>Alpha</strong>, 1964<br />

There is no substitute for preparation. In the NFL they prepare<br />

for a week, for a month, or even longer – for a mere hour <strong>of</strong><br />

game. Indeed, preparation is everything.<br />

The APOGLA BOD together with the ACNA convention<br />

delegates, and Past Presidents had to convene so many<br />

times that usually lasted ‘till almost midnight each time.<br />

Instrumental to the planning and preparation was the<br />

“Executive Director”, an appointed position created by a<br />

resolution passed by APOGLA BOD, we had ready reference.<br />

As a result <strong>of</strong> these many meetings, the following resolution<br />

were passed.<br />

(1)Board Resolution: Denying/Rejecting APOHA’s request<br />

for endorsement.<br />

(2)Board Resolution: A formal position paper to ACNA<br />

BOARD be submitted via email on August 22,2010. In<br />

actuality, this position paper was sent to each AA President<br />

via USPS, then thru email and was presented by Bro. Pres.<br />

Lito to ACNA BOARD at the convention.<br />

(3)Board Resolution: Submission <strong>of</strong> the one page “OPEN<br />

LETTER” to ACNET (as suggested by Bro. Roehl Reyes) to<br />

be lifted from TNB August 2010 newsletter.<br />

(4) CRC amendments submitted to APO <strong>Phi</strong>lippines a<br />

resolution that AA’s cannot be created without endorsement<br />

from neighboring AA’s – as discussed by Bro. COB Mar.<br />

And because we like to protect our brother who was<br />

elected as ACNA 2 nd Vice President, who will be in charge <strong>of</strong><br />

the 2012 ACNA convention, the APOGLA BOD, together with<br />

APOGLA delegates, and Past President Toti Ayo, in<br />

anticipation that APOHA will bid to host the convention, urged<br />

Bro. Pres. Lito bid to host the 2012 ACNA convention which<br />

we got.<br />

After all, we showed at the convention site prepared,<br />

complete with uniform (thanks to Bro. Egay) and scheduled<br />

activities (thanks to our First Lady and Bro. Tony Linsangan).<br />

Finally, we saw, we heard, we learned, and we experienced<br />

from the convention that “position(title) does not make a man,<br />

but rather a man makes the positon.” Becoming a President<br />

or COB <strong>of</strong> ACNA is not enough, you have to proved yourself,<br />

to be dependable and carry the load <strong>of</strong> the title.<br />

Before I end, the support and motivation extended to all<br />

the APOGLA delegates by the APOGLA members, families<br />

and children are highly appreciated. Folks, you are the best!<br />

CONGRATULATIONS!!!<br />

Now we have a lot <strong>of</strong> time to prepare for the 2012<br />

convention. JUST DO IT!<br />

<strong>of</strong> the day. Forty-six members and 6 kids enjoyed the Omelet<br />

Bar and the Breakfast Buffet <strong>of</strong> everyone’s favorite morning<br />

dishes including Troy’s chocolate milk!<br />

While the convention was going on, the wives, children<br />

and family members took a scenic drive up to the Fisherman’s<br />

Wharf and San Francisco Chinatown. The soup <strong>of</strong> the day<br />

was Clam Chowder! For more <strong>of</strong> their adventure, let them<br />

share their respective stories.<br />

Another favorite place was the nearby Vietnamese<br />

Restaurant where we savored the famous Pho So!<br />

The Hospitality Suite<br />

Adjoining Rooms 2142 and 2144 was the Central Station<br />

<strong>of</strong> APOGLA. It was in these rooms where unending fellowship<br />

hosted brothers, sisters and friends from all over, an unending<br />

supply <strong>of</strong> Corona and Hennessy plus the unending serving<br />

<strong>of</strong> great party foods! FL Josie made sure that there is food<br />

for everyone and FL Caroline provided the very useful<br />

microwave. The well <strong>of</strong> Cognac and beer was so deep<br />

courtesy <strong>of</strong> the brothers who made sure that we shall not<br />

thirst. One can see the joy <strong>of</strong> get-together, the happy faces<br />

<strong>of</strong> every brother, sister, family member that walked into our<br />

humble suite sharing stories and thanking us for our<br />

graciousness and hospitality. We came, we saw and we<br />

relished in each other the value <strong>of</strong> friendship, the gift <strong>of</strong> family<br />

and the love for each other during this special weekend.<br />

There were tears <strong>of</strong> joy, laughter, smiles and memories that<br />

will last a lifetime. We are APOGLA, Firm in Loyalty!<br />

Another favorite spot was the Karaoke Bar and Disco <strong>of</strong><br />

the hotel where the sis and brods danced the night away. It<br />

brought back memories and stories <strong>of</strong> the Brods’ Bible<br />

Classes in Hawaii!<br />

The Hotel lobby was likewise a grand arena where<br />

everyone mingled with other members; all were proudly<br />

wearing their AA colors. A sea <strong>of</strong> blue t-shirts at the grand<br />

foyer was worn by APOGLA.<br />

The New ACNA and Librado Ureta Foundation Officers<br />

Sunday, September 5 saw the election <strong>of</strong> the new Officers<br />

for the Development year 2011-2012 led by President Cora<br />

de Jesus (British Columbia), First Vice President Ian Beltrano<br />

(San Diego), Second Vice President Roehl Reyes (GLA) and<br />

The Newark Experience<br />

The 10 th ACNA Biennial Convention is finally behind us<br />

and is now a page in the history books. We learned a lot, we<br />

cherished the fellowship and friendships and we look forward<br />

to another beginning. We will be hosting the 2012<br />

Convention, the third time for APOGLA. One thing is sure,<br />

we went as one and we came home as one!<br />

Here’s to a beautiful and exciting weekend together, cheers!<br />

TEAM TEAM SOCAL SOCAL DEFENDED DEFENDED GOLF GOLF CUP<br />

CUP<br />

Team Socal is still the champion. It was unprecedented since<br />

this is the first time that there was a back to back winner <strong>of</strong><br />

this Annual event. The coveted Librado Ureta Service Cup<br />

is now back in the hands <strong>of</strong> TEAM SOCAL since Northern<br />

California kept it and did not award it to us even though we<br />

also won last year.<br />

This year’s championship game coincided with the ACNA<br />

Convention and Northern California team hosted it. It was a<br />

2 day golfing event held on September 2 & 3. The 1st it was<br />

played at Sunol Country Club day and it was a team match<br />

play format. The 2 nd day was individual matches and it was<br />

played in Summit[pointe Golf Course in Milpitas, Ca. TEAM<br />

SOCAL fielded a total <strong>of</strong> 18 golfers mostly from APOGLA<br />

and 5 members from Southbay.<br />

The Team Socal team members were, Brods Mar<br />

Garchitorena (Team Captain), Mervyn Gucilitar, Tony Gomez,<br />

Jimmy Magsino, Rene naval, Rudy Ruan, Bong Hernandez,<br />

Wilson Lautchang, Pj AClan, Mike Melendez, Pat Afan,<br />

Stephen Castro, Audie Grey, Angel Pangilinan, Art Rivera,<br />

Manny Martinez, Leo Castello, & Sis Melody Ang-Gayon .<br />

Other notable team member that were not able to make it<br />

were; Brod Bobet lara (injured), Boy Medina, Vinz Argonza<br />

& Raul Medina. They played and contributed in our last years<br />

win paving the way for TEAM SOCAL retaining the<br />

Championship Cup.<br />

Our Brothers up North were surprised what hit them because<br />

judging from the line up, TEAM SOCAL was the underdogs.<br />

The North Team took a 3 points lead in the first day match<br />

play event with the score <strong>of</strong> 5 ½ to 2 ½ but TEAM SOCAL<br />

battled back fiercely and took the 12 matches & tied one<br />

match out <strong>of</strong> the 18 matches the next day that secured our<br />

win. It was a serious and hard fought battle but in the end<br />

the bragging right as the better team belongs to the TEAM<br />

SOCAL.<br />

CONGRATULATION FOR JOB WELL DONE. Hoping that<br />

we still have the appetite for a THREEPEAT!!!! This time Team<br />

Socal Captain Bro Cesar promised that they will be more<br />

prepared. by Bro. Mar Garchitorena<br />
