welcome to our site
WELCOME to The University of San Agustin Class 77
web site. On this site, you will find information regarding the activities,
reunions, history and contact details of the graduates of the University of San
Agustin High School Class 1977. This site is also an online meeting point of
all graduates of that Class.
If you are a graduate or, in one way or another related to a graduate of this
Class, then this site may be of interest to you. Especially, if you are a son
or daughter of a Class 77 member and your parents are not too interested in
matters about the “internet”, then you are encouraged to assist your parents
(without being annoying, of course).
background
This web site was originally conceived as a site where our High
School Class 77 is to publish the events, with all the photos, taken during the
USA Centennial Homecoming Celebration held in July 2004.
It all started with some 40 plus members of the Class 77 having a reunion party
on July 16, 2004 at the Barbeque Park Restaurant in Iloilo, coinciding with the
Centennial Homecoming celebrations. On that day, it was decided (among other
things) that the Class is to have a “presence” in on the Internet and to
publish a Class Directory, - a registry of the current contact information of
all our classmates. Also, decided on that day was the election of a Class
Coordinator - we elected Annie Salas-Hermosisima to that position, and; to this
day, she is religiously performing her responsibilities without mental
reservation or purpose of evasion.
And so it came, that this author volunteered to be the webmaster whose job it
is, to build and maintain this web site, and Annie to be the coordinator in
Iloilo.
30th anniversary reunion
The next reunion of our Class will be on July
20 & 21, 2007, which will be the 30th Anniversary of our high
school graduation.

talked to a
caterer friend who is willing to charge P250.00/head dinner
buffet for a
minimum of 100 persons.
But as of now everything is still tentative. We are trying to canvass
other

Hotel de Rio can only be available if we reach 180-200 persons and
the dinner
buffet price is P400/head.

t-shirt

teachers in
the Retro Night is pending due to the availability of funds. A pre
registration and
partial payment is required to ensure attendance.for the finality
of the bookings.
Deadline of full payment is May 31,2007.
I would like to appeal again to you dear classmates (ioverseas), if you could
make a pledge or send your contribution
to us to make this affair a successful and fruitful one. We cannot make it
without your heartfelt support. Our class savings account
is maintained at the Phil. Bank of Communications Iloilo Branch Account
# 293-20-001387-2 in the name of Ana Maria Hermosisima,
Nerissa (Tuble) Tan, Beverly Rosales and Jonathan Patrick Yee.
Frankly, my postion as coordinator is really a headache. Yet I'm
doing this for the class because I'm very thankful to the Lord for the
oppurtunity He has given me to be in touch with all of you after more than 27
years. And as we celebrate our 30th year I'm even
more grateful because I believe we are lucky to reach this stage of our
lives and carreers. 30 years is 30 years, imagine? Parang kailan lang.
As I reiterate, the class needs your support. Share whatever you can and we
welcome it.
Thanks and God bless us all.
