The meeting last January 20th also marks the return of CC Peter from a 19-day pleasure trip to the US. Unfortunately, he had vertigo before his flight home so he forgot his gift of chocolates for his fellow Maharlikans.

CC Erika is proving to be a prolific recruiter for the club. She brought three guests, all from UST.
