A night to remember
“It’s not how much we give but how much love we put into giving.” — St. Teresa of Calcutta
The Johann Strauss Society of the Philippines Inc. (JSSP) recently held a West Side Story-inspired fellowship party at the North Forbes Park Pavilion in Makati City.
Co-chaired by Marissa Fenton, Lilibeth Campos and Fanny Blanco, with the support of JSSP chairman Monaco Consul General Fortune Ledesma, president Olga Severino Martel, vice president Gambia Consul Agnes Huibonhoa and treasurer Virginia Lane, the event was a fun-filled evening of laughter and dancing that lasted until the wee hours of the morning.
The party started with a lively dance number set to the music of West Side Story. Another highlight of the evening was the awarding of guests with the most authentic 1950s Upper West Side attire. Esteemed members of the diplomatic corps, JSSP members and friends attended the event. An amazing and truly unforgettable night was had by all.
Congratulations to the Johann Strauss Society of the Philippines Inc. for a successful event! *
