Alumni bonding at John Hay

The De La Salle Alumni Association recently held their fifth World Congress at the cool and relaxing vista of Camp John Hay in Baguio City. The spacious and well-equipped CAP-John Hay Trade and Cultural Center was indeed perfect for the grand gathering of the country’s movers and shakers who graduated from the great educational institution. DLSAA President Jose Tanjuatco and CJH Chairman Robert John Sobrepeña were on hand to make sure that the event was a success.

The DLSAA World Congress Golf Tournament was also quite a huge hit with the players, with Larry Tojino winning as the overall champion. All of the participants had a memorable experience as they played amidst the enormous pine trees, the flowerbeds, the pools of water and the picturesque mountain views of the Camp John Hay Golf Course.

Congratulations to the DLSAA and the efficient staff of Camp John Hay for such a successful affair!
