We attended Eat West Bank’s Annual Dealer Appreciation and Awards Night last friday, January 15, at the Grand Ballroom of Marriot Hotel.
Host for the evening was Bianca Valerio. Here she is, calling the names of raffle winners. I didn’t win even a consolation price.
Ford Cainta and Makati Ford both received awards for Top Ford Dealers.

They told me that the event preparations started in August 2015.
I asked them what they were going to gift the winners, they said just trophy. The budget went to the food, venue, entertainment, and raffle prizes (1M in total). I told them dealers have so many trophies already. They could instead use the money for the trophy to give dealers a gift they could use instead of the trophy.
Entertainers for the night were The Maneuvers and Gary Valenciano.

We all liked the spring roll.
We couldn’t finish the food. There were not enough people at our table and some were observing their strict diet a.k.a. Edmund.

Gary’s 51 years old na pala. He’s still very agile and dances so gracefully.

Food and venue looks nice Ms. Annie. Through photos, lady readers will learn not to wear sleeveless dress that exposes the flap. Looks like the lady has 2 more unexposed.
Ikaw talaga Joey.
Ms. Annie…. No wonder it cost the organizers P1M for the event.. Mr Gary V’s talent fee alone is quite high.. And the food, ang dami natira from each table.. Parang sayang naman kc hindi naubos.. Pero siguro naman may nagtake home ng mga leftovers from the serving plates.. Malinis naman un kahit hindi naubos kc nasa serving plates naman eh.. 😉
You’re right.. Sana they could’ve used a fraction of the total expenses to buy useful items as gifts for the awardees, instead of the trophies.. 😉
Congratulations to Ford Makati and Ford Cainta.. God bless u always… 🙂
There were lots of excess food. Sayang talaga. We brought home some from our table.
Thank you Pam.
