Almost three months in conceptualization and preparation, the much-anticipated International Night of the Consular Corps of Cebu was held at the Salon de España of Casino Español de Cebu, with the Zonta Club of Cebu 11 as participants and of course with members of the Consular Corps.
The event was a fundraiser for the many projects of Zonta and Cebu Society for Crippled Children. On the Consular side, Honorary Consul to Spain in Cebu, Jaime Picornell, was the project director, while taking the reins for Zonta was Petite Garcia.
Very much present amidst the gold, glitters, feathers and fanfare were the VIPs of the night Landco Pacific Corp. president Alfred Xerez-Burgos, son Alby Xerez-Burgos, and members of their Cebu office, who were joined by their Cebu partners Genvi Dev. Corp., with the Villalon siblings; Toti and Marga V.
