RY 1995 - 1996

Joaquin "Jack" Teotico
 
“Here’s to pretty girls who went down to our club… At the shrine of our friendship never say die. Let the wine of friendship never run dry. Here’s to you, and here’s to them.”

- Pres. Jack singing “Drink with Me” from Les Miserables
 

RCMBA entered its second year under the stewardship of Action President, government man, artist, and the Club’s resident bohemian Jack Teotico, who nurtured it into a creative toddlerhood. The Club’s membership blossomed, together with the variety and reach of its service projects. Of course, the partying continued too, and became more “spirited.”

For the first time, the Club took its dental and medical missions beyond Metro Manila, to the refugees of laharland, to the neglected island frontiers of Cavite, and various points in between. At this time too were forged the lasting ties between the Club and some of its favorite beneficiaries such as the denizens of Smokey Mountain, the street children in the care of Don Bosco, and the special wards of Stepping Stone.

Also, in celebration of Pres. Jack’s lingering preoccupation with young one’s, the Club strongly embarked on youth-oriented activities such as participation in the National Youth Conference, Domestic Youth Exchange Program and Summer Youth Exchange Program.

Meanwhile, the process of rotarization continued, with the members’ discovery that: a) past district governors do not fade away but merely accumulate and make speech introductions longer; and b) any self-respecting Rotary Club should have at least six types of presidents at any given time (charter, past, immediate past, elect, nominee, and the basic garden-variety or incumbent president).
