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 />

e er<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 />

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

Brod Lito Tarculas<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 />

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 />
