(...more photos)

"Dear all,

Let me thank all the members and their guests who came to our 2012 annual dinner yesterday, even though it was cold and rainy all day here in the Bay Area. For those who were not available to make it, you missed the chance to see your old friends and more. Here is a summary and our thanks to the generous help we received :

- Each director presented their work report for the past year.
- After singing our school song, buffet dinner began.
- We played a quiz during intermission. It really made us all scratch our heads. Questions are pictures of current events and QES related. Helios, the quiz designer, kept it so secret that not even his wife, Alice, had a clue. It finally came to 2 highest score tables and a tiebreaker question was needed. You can see the picture of the joyful winners on our website later.
- Special thanks to Doris Tse for your one of a kind funny presentation, Doris, Inc. It brought us a lot of laughs.
- Many thanks to Donald Lam for being the photographer of the night. He already sent out all the pictures and video he took. He must be staying up late last night.
- Thanks to all directors and volunteers for setting up and cleaning before and after the dinner.
- Also thanks to all the gift donors, and congratualtions to all the winners, especially the 2 very lucky ones who won the association's grand prizes gift cards.

You may visit our website for the pictures of the dinner. Please allow about 2 weeks for us to collect them from all sources and post them.

Usually we report the accounting results of the dinner and other events in the following year's annual dinner. Since some of you have doubt about why we charged the amount we charged for the dinner, I hereby report that there were 31 attendees. We have a surplus of $29.81, which is receipt $702 minus dinner costs $577 and gifts $95.19.

Finally, please allow me to tell you that our association will face a critical situation. In our association's constitution, we need a minimum of SIX directors to form a Board. 3 current directors decided not to seek re-election after this year, 5 others have not confirmed if they will stay. As I told our members during the annual dinner yesterday, the asociation needs you now. Please take some time to think about if you can arrange your time to become a director of the board and which position would fit your interest. You can let me or any directors know about your intention or decisions anytime. Remember, the association would not be able to function normally and as a collective party without a board. Your contributions to the association will be much appreciated by all.

Stay well and hope to hear from you.

Crystal
President"

"Joyce's farewell lunch at Pilita, San Carlos.

We had an enjoyable Turkish/Mediterranean lunch with Joyce and caught up some old good stories in HK and about travelling. By quoting Nelson's wish to her: "Bon Voyage" and "Viya con Dios".

"Nothing is better than sharing some happy memories with your friends. We have this wonderful opportunity in our 2010 Annual Dinner on March 13, 2010 for our members and guests to spend an evening together. Glad to see many of us not only look great and healthy, but even look younger !!! Our directors tirelessly prepared this event. Particularly our Social Activites Director Louisa and Membership Director Alex together with former president Nelson who all worked overtime on coordinating the Photo Contest. Big thanks to them. Besides, we also thank our guests Mr. & Mrs. Thomas Lee's generous help as one of our event photographers. It was please to meet our alumae Betty Lee (FA 65) and Ho Hiu Hong (FA88) and hope to see you again in our future events.
