Maraming Salamat Po. A Million Thanks to You!


Overall Chair Philippine Independence Week Committee, 2010 Gala Night & Coronation of Beauty Queens
June 12, 2010 * Hyatt Regency O’Hare International

The recently concluded PIWC celebration of our 112th Philippine Independence was a testimony to our power as a community. For the first time after so many years, and at a time of great economic recession in America, a formal event such as the PIWC Gala Night gathered some eight hundred (800) guests in the Grand Ballroom of Hyatt Regency O’Hare International.

Our gala night was a stunning success. So were the other activities, such as the kick off, motorcade, picnic, essay writing contest, etc. Thanks to our hardworking officers, commitee chairs, members and volunteers for their hard work, talents and cooperation.

Special Thanks to the following people for their generous contributions:

  • The Beauty Queens and their families, friends and supporters;
  • Lydia A. Rhoton (OVER ALL CHAIR, 2009);
  • lourdes C. Livas;
  • Ms. Salvy Marino;
  • C. R. Oriental, Little Quiapo, Fish Pond, RC Trading & Norma Manankil;
  • Press Relations Officers – Anong Santos, Veronica Leighton and Yoly Tubalinal.

Please accept also my sincere apologies for my shortcomings. I look forward to seeing you again in our Appreciation Night. Mabuhay and Pilipinas! Mabuhay and Pilipino! JM
