Rotary Club of Manila Hosts RI President Barry Rassin and Lady Esther Dinner

The Rotary Club of Manila, the First in Asia, will host a dinner in honor of Rotary International President Barry Rassin and Lady Esther on July 19, 2018, 6:00 pm at the Grand Ballroom of Okada Manila in Parañaque City. Rassin, who assumed the presidency of Rotary International effective July 1, 2018, will be visiting the Philippines on the occasion of the Asia Pacific Regional Rotaract Conference (APRRC) which will be held in Manila.

As the first Rotary Club in the Philippines and in Asia, the Rotary Club of Manila assumes its role as the lead club in hosting the dinner which it considers as a milestone event since it occurs on the occasion of the Year of the Centennial of the Rotary Club of Manila and the Rotary movement in the Philippines and in Asia as declared by President Rodrigo Roa Duterte in Proclamation No. 413 issued last January 24, 2018.

The club encourages early registration for those attending the dinner as early registrants will be given priority for preferred tables. Entertainment for the evening will feature renowned singer Dulce, Asia’s Golden Girl Gerphil Flores, Banda Kawayan and show band Sabor Latino. Registration begins at 4:30 pm and attendees are requested to be in dark suit for males and long gown for females. Tickets are priced at Php 3,000.00 each.
