Subject: A donation in Honor of the the late Domingo Capuyan - From Emily Capuyan

 
To the  LAFF Committee:
cc: SMSSAFF BOT and Officer and President of SMSSI, Manong Rufino Bomasang
 
In the past few days, two of our LAFF committee members, Emily Capuyan and Nellie Balola, and I have been discussing about our library project. I am happy to inform you that Emily Capuyan would like to donate a hectare of pine wood that is ready for harvesting. I've discussed this with Emily about talking it over with his siblings and family first but I understand from her that this is okay. This donation is in honor of their Father, Domingo Capuyan, who truly believed in the value of education. Manong Domingo sent all his 10 children to SMS.
 
So folks in Sagada, please see Emily's email below. To Manang Rhoda, please ask Ezra and discuss with Emily's auntie - Beatrice Capuyan Agpad.  Perhaps we can have folks there to volunteer their labor to cut and prepare the pine wood? 
 
Incidentally, Mia and I have been buying lumber and Ezra is keeping them in Atowanan. We plan to build a house somewhere in Sagada when the time comes. Not sure when yet. It may take a long long time to cut down, dry, and prepare the pine lumber for SMS use. If there is no alternative, you may use ours - but make sure you replace the lumber..
 
To Emily, on behalf of the LAFF Committee, I thank you for your support.
 
Layad am-in ken dakayo,

Hi manong Ed,
 
If manang Rhoda and her son can do it then let them do it. I understand the trees needs to be cut down tapno ma ango sadapay osalen. They have to contact my father's sister Beatrice Capuyan Agpad there in Sagada and ask her of the whereabouts of Danonoy. I was planning to contact my aunt but it will be very slow as they don't have email addresses. Let them contact first my aunt to check for the pine trees if it is enough as I think it should because our property is more than 10 hectares.
 
If you plan to present this to the Laff or the Sms board, it would  be in memory or in honor of my late father Domingo Capuyan who value education very much when he was alive but did not have the oppurtunity to finish his education in SMS but his 10 children are all alumni of our beloved school, one of his children would like to donate the wood needed for the library renovation for the benefit of the Sagada children.  
 
If it is up to me, I would even let out of town students to stay in our house there in Demang for free as long as they take care of it, tay ma-id metlang met men te te e. But that is another issue of course.
 
Men gaganat nan likna ay tumulong ngem ammom met baken pareho nan liknan am-in nan ipogaw. Look at us here in Canada, nasa-ek nan kalangakang ko ay mang ibag bag baga dadapay igiginek. Or maybe I think my approach is not very convincing. So I am exercising my patience to wait for them.
 
Thanks, I'll remember to drop by with my gang when ever we go down there.
 
I should be the one thanking you and the others for all your effort you put on SMS.
 
Siya ngarud di.

I have past copies of the National Geographic Magazine. If SMS does not need them please give them to St. James. My Balik bayan box of books is ready to be shipped.

I usually sent them to Frank and now Muriel Longid.

Gloria,
Some door to door deliveries now reach Sagada, so check if the door to door agents you are  using can deliver up to Sagada.
Just $10.00 more than those sent to Baguio. It costs $79.00 to send Balikbayan boxes, door to door through Johnny Air Cargo(New York/New Jersey area) up to Sagada.

Manang Christina,

Thank you so much for your $300 pledge. Mia and I will match that.

We had a bit of an SMS reunion here during my mother-in-law's 40th day
memorial service. We discussed about ways in raising funds for the library
and the auditorium. We were brainstorming on how to raise funds. One was to
have a dinner/dance specifically for this project. If we were to hold it,
say, in New York or New Jersey, we were wondering if we can get enough folks
to come. At our recent induction party here in the DC area, we sold our
tickets at $45 and our cost was about $29.

Manog Rufino, if I remember correctly, the estimated cost for the library
was about $10K. Is this a target we should be shooting for?

Thanks Rufino.  The Physics, Chemistry, and Bio Labs (plus the computer lab are all done and operational.  I just observed class experiments in Physics (inertia and gravity), and something with chemicals.  Kids are so excited about the labs!  The stage in the auditorium is almost finished.  We are stopping work for the Pista sa Santa Marya celebrations, but the whole auditorium (now called the theater) should be finished in time for the Annual Board Meeting.  After this, we will start the Stapleton Hall renovations.  I will use the money you raised for the computers to advance the expenses for the Stapleton Hall work, and the theater.  The theater renovation is my ob-obbo counterpart to the SMS alumni effort to help the school. 

Is there any word on the Library and the Sports Complex?

Subject: [StMarySchool] Additional Donations for SMS Golf Tournament

Dear Dennis, 

I deposited today at Land Bank Buendia a check for 150000 pesos payable to SMSSI for two platinum sponsorships by Shell Philippines Exploration in the forthcoming SMS golf tournament for the computer project. 

I expect more donations, but even now it looks like we already have more than enough to pay you back what you have advanced for the 18 computers, purchase 3 additional computers for the library, finance the the Smart Wi Fi istallation, and pay the rental of the system for the next five years. This of course assumes that all the pledges from the SMS alumni and friends abroad for the golf hole sponsorships are paid and remitted, which I expect to be done very soon. 

Any extra proceeds from the golf tournament should be used to get started with the Stapleton Hall  renovation soonest  before prices of construction materials become too prohibitive and so that it is completed before the next school year. As discussed, I appreciate very much your offer to advance the balance of the funds needed, while the fund raising campaign for the renovation is still going on. 

By copy of this email, I would like to request Inez to remit soonest what has already been collected for the renovation. I also pray that other kind hearted SMS alumni and friends will appreciate the urgency of completing the renovation work and donate what they can soonest. 

Rufino

Have a good day.

Rufino Bomasang
