Members ratify AI & BL

Members of the Ateneo de Naga High School Batch 1991 have ratified the Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the association during the batch meeting held last January 24, 2015 at Krypton Grill, Naga City.

The AI and BL presented and discussed to the members by Alberto Bercasio, batch president, were the version resultant of the deliberation earlier made by the officers on the original draft prepared by Vincent Aunisin, batch secretary.

Some minor modifications on the AI and BL were proposed and adopted during the presentation of the same to the members present. 

Some fundamental provisions of the AI and BL include the following:

2015 batch officers hold 1st meeting; AI & BL in the works

The newly elected set of officers of Batch ’91 held their first meeting, Saturday 10^th January 2015 at 5:30 p.m. at Soledad, Magsaysay Avenue, Naga City.

First on the agenda was the finalization of the proposed Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws of the organization drafted in preparation for its presentation to the batch membership for their ratification in a meeting set on January 24, 2015 and its subsequent registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission which the officers hope to be done early next month.

Also in the agenda were the brainstorming for the fund raising activities and other activities in preparation for the 2016 homecoming sponsorship by Batch ’91, the ADNAA (AdNUGAA) thanksgiving mass, batch initiatives, updates and other matters.  

Usual turnout at Ateneo Avenue

Attendees from Ateneo HS Batch ’91 at the December 30, 2014 Grand Alumni Homecoming dubbed as “Ateneo Avenue” by sponsor batches 1989 (silver jubilarian) and 1964 (golden jubilarian), turned out at 43 (see list of attendees). The number was expected to be bigger but due to the incessant rain, the number of attendees was limited. The Batch Night held at Daddy’s Grill the night before the reunion has had more attendees.

The number of attendees was also limited by those abroad and at other distant places who are reserving their comeback to the 2016 Grand Alumni Homecoming in time for the closing ceremonies of the Ateneo at 75 which will coincide with the silver jubilee (25^th year) of batch 1991. The silver jubilarian batch is the main sponsor during the grand reunion with the golden jubilarian batch, the co-sponsor.

The batch ’91 attendees then proceeded to Daddy’s Grill from Ateneo Avenue for more private socials where they discussed plans for their silver jubilee and for the formal organization of the batch. (More photos).

2015 batch officers elected

A new set of batch officers was elected during the Batch Night held last December 29, 2014 at Daddy’s Grill in Naga City.

Elected officers were Alberto Bercasio (President), Ricky Villamora (Vice President), Vincent Aunisin (Secretary), Justine Francis Barja (Treasurer), Francisco Perfecto Clarete (Auditor) and Oliver Olivo (PIO). During the nomination of candidates, Marielito Almelor moved to first open the positions to volunteers who have the willingness and conviction to take on the responsibilities to be left by outgoing president, Richmond Canlas, who, upon calling the meeting to order, intimated to the body that he would like to be relinquished of the responsibility that he held for quite a number of years. 

With the Almelor’s motion unopposed and collectively seconded, Alberto Bercasio volunteered to head the batch. The body applauded Bercasio’s offer of himself. The floor was then opened to other volunteers but none other volunteered. Bercasio was then proclaimed as new elected president.

The same elective process was followed for the other positions. Ricky Villamora and Rommel Cabrera offered themselves for the vice presidency. Having two volunteers, the body went on to vote. With Villamora garnering more votes, he was proclaimed elected vice president.

Having no volunteer for the position of secretary, Aldous Jonel Modino nominated Vincent Aunisin to the position. In turn, Modino was nominated by ___________ but Modino declined the nomination he having been the nominator of Aunisin. There having no other nominee, the sole candidate, after having accepted the nomination, was proclaimed secretary.

The positions of treasurer, auditor and PIO all received sole nominations with Justine Francis Barja, Francisco Perfecto Clarete and Oliver Olivo, respectively being proclaimed elected to their positions.  

Outgoing president, Richmond Canlas, congratulated the new set of officers.

Four batch ’91 members elected to AdNUGAA Board

Justin Francis Barja, Alberto Bercasio, Rommel Cabrera and Jacob Disuanco, all members and the only nominees from the Ateneo de Naga High School Class 1991, were elected as trustees of the Ateneo de Naga University General Alumni Association (AdNUGAA) during the election held in the afternoon of December 30, 2014 at the Xavier Hall, Ateneo de Naga University main campus.
