MPHS-BCHS-BCNHS ready to receive hundreds for its 92nd grand alumni homecoming

Re: MPHS-BCHS-BCNHS ready to receive hundreds for its 92nd grand alumni homecoming

BAGUIO CITY (18 April) – Hundreds of graduates from the city’s biggest high school are trooping back to their alma mater this coming weekend (May 6-7) for the Mountain Province High School – Baguio City High School – Baguio City National High School grand alumni homecoming.

“We are ready,” declared MPHS-BCHS-BCNHS Alumni Association, Inc. president Dr. Tedler Depaynos yesterday as he said the BCHS Class of 1986 have done the groundworks in hosting this year’s festivities that will see hundreds from all parts of the world coming home to relieve their good old four years at the public high school.

“It will be a two-day event where we will relieve our youth,” said BCHS Class of 1986 president Rebecca Follosco.

Follosco’s class will lead close to 400 alumni of the school in the celebration as her group will follow a time bound tradition of bringing merriment to the different classes especially the golden jubilarian’s, the class of 1961.

Follosco said that festivity will start with the registration on the morning of April 6 at the BCNHS Campus along Gov. Pack Road. This will be followed with a medical mission headed by the class vice president, Dr. Tirso Oloan. Also, a sports festivity with basketball will be staged at the BCNHS auditorium.

By the evening, after the dinner, the class of 1986 will lead participants in honoring their teachers from the past, at the BCNHS auditorium, also called the Flavier building, after former Senator Juan Flavier who through his pork barrel helped build the building. Flavier is from class of 1952.

Day two on April 7, Saturday, will start with a parade at 8 AM at the Post Office Loop where participants will don their “most outrageous” costume as they tread their way to the BCNHS campus for the general assembly.

This will be followed with the president’s and treasurer’s reports and the general election where five new directors will be voted in. Graduating directors include Pio Caccam (Class of 1956), Bernard Balatian (Class 1960), Atty. Isidro Bautista (Class 1963), Retired police general Jose Andaya (Class 1961) and Braulio Giron (Class of 1972). The last two filled up the positions of Arthur Florendo (Class 1958) and former MTC judge Maria Theresa Guadana-Tano, who both resigned last year, the latter as she migrated with her family to Canada.

The remaining directors led by Depaynos (class 1966), vice president Lawrence Doogan (Class 1951), secretary Joan Tan (class 1975), vice president for Luzon and former Department of Education- Cordillera director Remedios Taguba (class 1957), treasurer Laurence Adube (class 1976), Nene Godoy (class 1964), Gertrude Ramos (class 1974), Willy Ramos (class 1958), Virgilio Fuerte (class 1959) and Pigeon Lobien (class 1985).

This will be followed with a lunch and in the evening will be the gala night at the Hotel Supreme where the five outstanding alumni will be honored and the turn over ceremony to next year’s host, the class of 1987.

This year, which has the theme: “From dreams we cast… to memories that last”, the outstanding alumni are: retired professor of University of Brazil in Rio de Janiero Mercedes Lopez – Pertsew (class 1950) for education, retired Philippine Navy commodore Justo Prado Manlongat (class 1963) for military service, Evelyn Domingo – Barker (class 1961) for international service, Col. Jacquiliano Lagiwid (class 1979) for military service and Luz Calvo Sianghio (class 1955) for community service.

Calvo Sinaghio of Habitat will also be the guest speaker for the homecoming. -30-
