For \u201c The Association of Lyceum Past Students<\/strong> \u201c  a 30th<\/sup> anniversary celebration reflects what ALPS has accomplished <\/p>\n\n\n\n

since its foundation date in 1994. To write stories from its past history, would perhaps take volumes and a long time<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to complete. Organizing for its members and friends an anniversary celebration that marks its 30 years of existence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

enables ALPS to reflect, on what has happened over the past years and what is expected to happen in subsequent years<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to build an ALPS legacy. With its limited financial resources and cost cutting measures, the association could not afford<\/p>\n\n\n\n

extravagant spending. However, with the vast knowledge and knowhow from many of its council executives, a wise<\/p>\n\n\n\n

plan of budgetary spending and at the same time taking it as a challenge, the organizing committee could think and prepare<\/p>\n\n\n\n

a very satisfactory commemoration to keep all its members and friends truly happy. ALPS wanted to create a unique theme<\/p>\n\n\n\n

by producing and distributing a 30th<\/sup> anniversary keychain token that carries the colorful logo and an inscription which reads:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                                     ALPS  –  30 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE, PASSION AND COMMITMENT <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grand celebration dinner has been a wonderful success. The well decorated and specially prepared ballroom of the<\/p>\n\n\n\n

prestigious Radisson Golden Sands Resort \/ Ghajn Tuffieha, has seen a good number of members attending with wives<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and friends, who all came to celebrate together, this special occasion in the history of The GHAQDA EX-STUDENTI LICEO.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

All  guests have been impressed with the high level of organization. For this occasion a special menu was planned in advance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and the vast selection of food that was served has pleased everyone who attended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speeches were delivered by ALPS President \u2013 George Galea and by the immediate past president George Stagno Navarra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They both paid homage to the ALPS Founder President Dr. Guido Saliba whose dream continues to live to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking at the future, one thinks of new members from a younger generation who will be able to lead ALPS to a greater future<\/p>\n\n\n\n

in order to keep alive the name of IL-LICEO that has always been considered as the best secondary school in Malta & Gozo.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With much pleasure, the association thanks its new Secretary General Mark Darmanin. He is doing a fine job and could be<\/p>\n\n\n\n

instrumental to attract some new blood of younger years, who will join him and lead the association for many more future years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
