Parties followed for two weeks hosted by, among others, Zonta Club of Metro Rizal, Catholic Women’s Club, Louie Locsin, Gigi Tanjutco, Ofie Benavides, Vicky Aquino, Pie Kalaw, Marybeth Suarez, Lulu Sotto, Meng Perdices, Chona Lazaro, Corito Galvez, Gilda Tanalega and more.

There was a big bash at Conways at Shangri-La, where the music of the ’60s brought back high school memories and they danced the bugaloo, twist, jerk, etc. all night. Marilou Pineda who was abroad sent a cake, and Celine was asked to blow the candles as her friends sang.
