The De La Salle Alumni celebrated their anniversary last month at the Blacktown RSL Club and green was the color of the night!

There was no fancy fanfare, no pretenses.  Except for the President’s Bart Sarlabus  welcome remarks and raffle  announcements, there were no drawn out speeches.

What was evident was subtle overtones of class, camaraderie and friendship which permeated the room.  It was catch-up time with old friends.  Special guest of the evening was Consul General Anne Jalando-on Louis, a DLSU almuna. 

There was a live band, a little dance exhibition and  lots of room for the green archers, their friends and partners to get down and boogie.  And that they did!

Making it all happen in  full “Animo La Salle” spirit were the officers of the De La Salle Alumni which  include:  Bart Sarlabus, President; Bert Rejante, Vice President/Secretary; Edu Davila, Treasurer and former President.  Other Directors include:  Miguel Florentino , JJ Lindaya, Mike Moran, Mike Salalila and Joey Reyes.

Established in 2002, De La Salle is focused on building relations with fellow alumni and they continue to provide scholarship  grants for students of their alma mater.  De La Salle also participates in Sydney’s Filipino community’s NCAA Bowling tournaments.
