Philippines Friendship Team Visits Franklin Rotary

By John Short

The Philippine Friendship Team provided todays program.

Stacy Guffey introduced Elenita "Ellen" Landicho, team

leader, who introduced the members of the group.

The team included: Alicia Panerio, President and General

manager of ALSID ENT, a military supplies marketing

firm.; Lolita Anahaw an enterpreneur business woman in-

volved in child care.; Marilou Salazar, Owner/President of a refrigeration and air

conditioning supply company; Violeta Violy and Team leader Ellen Landicho, Presi-

dent of Eland Trading Corp., an accredited supplier of government agencies. The

team had a great time while in Franklin exploring Highlands and viewing the area

waterfalls; enjoying an evening of fellowship at the Rathskeller and shopping at

the Gem Museum, which I under-

stand had to restock after their

visit.

It was great to have the team

with us in Franklin and hope they

enjoy the remainder of their stay

in Western North Carolina.
