It was a grand celebration for the homeowners of Ayala North Point as their subdivision celebrated its 10th anniversary, recently, at their Village Clubhouse.

The old hacienda party motif brought back colorful memories during the golden age of sugar.

That night, the ladies of Negros arrived dressed in elegant Filipiniana attire while the men were dashing in their barong.

Among the program highlights included a tribute to the landowners of the subdivision, the donation of P50,000 by Ayala's Therese Borromeo to the Rotary Club of Bacolod East for their day care project, and the awarding of the best in Filipiniana attire.

It was a celebration to remember as guests partied and danced the night away.*
