🚨BREAKING NEWS: THE 7TH REGULAR MEETING HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY DECLARED… A REGULAR EATING! 😂🍽️🎉

After a jam-packed club day of functions, activities, and service, the happy Rotarians of the ROTARY CLUB OF ANTIQUE decided there was only one proper way to end the day: eat, laugh, share, and celebrate! 😄
September 16, 2026

With laughter and fellowship filling the room, everyone enjoyed a sumptuous dinner generously sponsored by President Donna. ❤️

And the celebration got even merrier with free drinks from yesterday’s birthday girl, PP Marlene! 🥂🎂

From service to supper, from busy schedules to happy tables, it was another memorable Rotary gathering filled with friendship, gratitude, and good vibes.

Because sometimes, after a day of Service Above Self, you simply have to say… “Let’s eat!” 😂🍴💙💛

🌱🌳 PROJECT FRUIT TREES FOR LIFE — Growing Trees, Growing Hope, Growing a Better Future! 🌳🌱
September 16, 2026

The Rotary Club of Antique led by Pres. Donna Marie Rios Encarnacion is bringing new life to its Fruit Tree Nursery at Villa Del Carmen, a project that was started last year with a simple but powerful vision: to protect our environment while helping strengthen our future food supply.

Through our valued partnership with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), the Club has received 200 fruit tree seedlings today to help expand our nursery:

🌳 20 Jackfruit
🥑 10 Avocado
🍫 120 Cacao
🍈 20 Guyabano
🌰 15 Cashew
🌰 15 Chestnut

But we are not stopping at 200! 💚

Our Rotary members continue to bring and nurture additional seedlings as we work toward our goal of planting 300+ fruit trees this Rotary Year.
Last year we planted 381 fruit bearing trees.

Every seedling we plant today is a gift to tomorrow-a gift to our children, our communities, our environment, and generations yet to come. 🌱
This is creating a lasting impact.🌍💚
Together with our partners and our community, the Rotary Club of Antique continues to live out Service Above Self-one tree, one seedling, and one lasting impact at a time.

🌱 Plant a tree. Nurture it. Let it grow. And help grow a future where people and nature thrive together.

PROJECT FRUIT TREES FOR LIFE
Protecting the Environment. Growing Food. Nourishing Generations. 💚🌳

📚🧸 TODAY, the Rotary Club of Antique, led by Pres. Donna Marie Rios Encarnacion officially launched the BATANG ANTIKENYO — READ. PLAY. LEARN. Donation Boxes!
September 16, 2026

Our heartfelt thanks to St. Anthony's College Grade School and Antique Christian Center for warmly accommodating our donation boxes and wholeheartedly embracing this meaningful project. 💛

More than collecting books, toys, and learning materials for less privileged children in our Barangay Daycare Centers, we are also teaching our young students the beautiful value of KINDNESS and SHARING.

🌟 A book shared can inspire a dream. A toy given can bring joy. A simple act of kindness can change a child's world.

Together, let us raise not only children who are educated—but children with kind hearts. ❤️

BATANG ANTIKENYO — READ. PLAY. LEARN.
Sharing today. Inspiring tomorrow.

🏆 THE SEARCH FOR THE ANTIQUEÑO WHO MAKES A DIFFERENCE 🏆
September 9, 2026

Today, the Rotary Club of Antique, led by AAA Chair PP Arianna de la Serna and Pres. Donna Marie Rios Encarnacion took another important step in honoring the extraordinary people who make our province a better place.

The Club held its Deliberation for the Search for the AAA 2026 Awardees, with Ms. Milagros Wayno serving as our esteemed External Deliberator.

With eight (8) members in the team of deliberators, the process was marked by thoughtful discussions, careful evaluation, and rigorous scoring of every nominee. Each candidate was examined based on merit, impact, integrity, dedication, and meaningful contributions to the community.

This was not simply about choosing names.

It was about identifying the Antiqueños whose lives and work truly embody excellence, service, and love for Antique—individuals who have gone beyond what is expected and have created a lasting impact on the lives of others.

After a thorough and conscientious deliberation, the teams arrived at the FINAL LIST OF AAA 2026 AWARDEES.

✨ They are the people whose stories deserve to be celebrated.

The Antiqueño Ako Awards (AAA) continues its tradition of recognizing the remarkable sons and daughters of Antique who inspire us to serve, lead, excel, and make a difference.

Soon, Antique will know who they are.

🏆 AAA 2026 — Celebrating Antiqueños Who Make Antique Proud.

Keep on coming mga Batang Antikenyo!
