P.S We are asking talented Ateneans who would like to perform in the program to contact me or any officer. A special dance, song number from the alumni would be a lot of fun. A special ballroom number by the Alumni Board and officers would be even better.

Thank you Gerry Berdan and Olma Innocentes for volunteering as emcees for this event. We are also calling on all young Ateneo professionals who recently moved in the area to join and be part of the program and respective committees. Success of the Dinner Ball would help the Association in funding for charitable ventures to include the Ateneo-DC GK project and Ateneo Scholarship fund.

Thank you and see you on June 19th.

Animo Ateneo.
