Title: MNWD’s 36th Year Anniversary: A moment to remember

Smiling faces, eveybody is in a hurry, music playing and positive aura is felt all around the corner. WHY? It’s because December 11, 2015, marked the MNWD’s 36th year Anniversary and a Christmas party, too-an awaited celebration wherein officers and employees longed for.

This joyous day jam packed activities started with a Holy Mass as a thanksgiving and praise to the Almighty for all the bountiful blessings bestowed.

This event will complete not without the new learning’s imparted by the Civil Service Commission (CSC) staff thru a seminar on “Self-Enhancement and Performance Behavior”,..“Coffee is more important than cups” meaning the quality of service is more important than the preparation.

To add more color and spice, guests were invited, Naga City Mayor John G. Bongat, Tabuco Barangay Captain Julian Lavadia, Jr., Former MNWD Chairman of the Board of Directors Mr. Fortunato P. Mendoza, MNWD Legal Counsel Atty. Esperidion Solano, MNWD Technical Consultant Mr. Alberto Bercasio, MNWD Board Chair Engr. Aquiles D. Lo, and Board Members Mrs. Socorro B. Felix and Mr. Jorge T.

Then, intense excitement followed because of the parlor games that once played during childhood years, hosted by Commercial Services Department, participated by all employees in their colorful shirts that represent their respective team. And, to complete the day, a raffle extravaganza and gifts were given.

As a way of mind setting for this event, a preliminary activity was held, the first ever MNWD’s Fun Run and tree planting sponsored by Metropolitan Naga Water District Employees Union (MNWDEU) entitled “Dalagan para sa Kadlagan” in the protected Watershed Area at Curry, Pili, Camarines Sur, held first week of December, 2015.

To all of us, have a Merry Christmas and a motivated individual by 2016!
