Greetings to all APO Eta Alumni brods/sis & sisters from Kappa!

How time flies. Parang kailan lamang ng tayo ay magkakilala at maging magkakapatid sa Alpha Phi Omega. Gusto sana naming sariwain ang mga panahong ito kaya kami na naging APO noong 1960, kaming mga Blackjacks at High Noon ay nag-kaisa na magdiwang ng aming Gintong Taon…at siempre gusto namin kasama kayo!

KAYA, YOU ARE ALL INVITED TO JOIN US AND
GET BACK TO THE 60′S
DANCING THE NIGHT AWAY TO THE MUSIC OF TWO ACKNOWLEDGED RETRO BANDS
THE X.O.P. and the Endangered Species

on Oct 23 at the Fiesta San Miguel, Dusit Thani Hotel. Sumptuous Buffet Dinner will be served at 7PM plus Bottles of Wine at every table. Please bring your partner, spouse, girlfriend, boyfriend or whoever will make your night memorable. Let us once again re-live our frat ball years. But of course, like any frat ball there is a cost to it. For this night we are asking from you a minimal contribution of P1000 per head. We, the Blackjacks & High Noon are subsidizing the difference.

The invitation is attached. PLease confirm your presence with Alumni president Manny Clarino at ev_clarino@yahoo.com.ph and/or 09178102882. Once your presence is confirmed, Manny will send you the printed invitation. Please note, our initial reservation is for 100 pax although we expect more will be coming to the affair.

In behalf of Blackjacks and High Noon, this is
