The Philippine Cultural Society for Families and Friends, Inc. (PCSFFI) held a Musical Mini-Concert last 5 October 2014 at the Raleigh Road Activity Centre in Maribyrnong. Before the festivity, Fr. Litoy Asis officiated the mass.
The activity aimed to present musical talents of the group’s members, families and friends. Members presented vocal solo, duet, folk dances, modern and ballroom dance, live band, musical instruments, community singing and line dancing.
The event also served as a reunion of families representing current, retired in the Philippines and families of deceased members. The activity coincided with the celebration of Senior Citizens Week with senior citizens performing while other musical numbers were dedicated to them.
Guest speakers were Mayor Councillor Grant Miles of the Maribyrnong City Council and Mrs. Perla Luetic, Chairperson of the Filipino Community Council of Victoria, Inc. Both encouraged multiculturalism and interaction with different Filipino and ethnic communities.
Mrs Henrietta Soledad, PCSFFI’s current President, was the program co-ordinator.
