GENERAL ASSEMBLY & STRATEGIC PLANNING
Date: January 7, 2018
The 2018 General Assembly and Strategic Planning was
conducted at the rehearsals studio of Step One Dance Company
of Evelou Villodres and hubby Kid Villodres. The art
setting was a requirement to the gathering with a “Bohemian”
outlook as a theme.
Lying on mats, with pillows and cushion, “pang-bahay”
mode of attire and more food and “pic-pica” spread on the
floor.
This unconventional style and attitude of the organization
of applying creative or nonconformist beatnik characterization
is actually its difference and unique style, that according
to the seniors in the group, it is a source of cohesion and
belonginess given that majority of its members are active
artists and creative individuals minus their tantrums and
hysterics.
The planning was facilitated by Dr. Mario Mayong Aguja,
the perpetual guide, instructor and adviser of the org since
its inception, in fact a honorary member of the board because
of his constant support and assistance.
