An Invitation to All Former Subic Naval Base Workers
 

Olongapo City is priming up for �Subic Bay Reunion 2003�, one of the main features of the �Visit Philippines Year 2003� campaign of the Department of Tourism initiated by Secretary Richard J. Gordon. This bustling City of Volunteers and leading �Clean & Green� exponent has always been synonymous with Subic Bay and its rich history as it played host to the former U.S. Naval facility for so many decades. Now, Olongapo is bound to re-live old glory and camaraderies with the staging of the �Subic Bay Reunion� project slated October of this year.

The event proves to be most significant to those who had rendered services to the former American naval facility, thus becoming an indispensable part of the crucial course of history that the former military base had witnessed into dramatically re-shaping the fate of the City of Olongapo, its people and its ever-evolving economic, social and political landscape.

As true-blooded Olongape�os or those who had ventured into the city and made it their second home, you are all invited to take part in the reunion that will mainly gather many military and civilian personnel who were once stationed at the former naval base -- for various significant activities that would surely bring us all back to a very special time of our lives, allow us to converge with old friends and co-workers and reminisce the good old Olongapo way of life in a unique and multi-faceted business and travel setting that is Subic Bay.

The Subic Bay Reunion 2003 promises to be one memorable nostalgic trip to the heydays of the Subic Naval Base with the following exciting line-up of activities:

We will be expecting a highly spirited show of support from the concerned sector and together, let us make this historic event a resounding success.
