Alii, former Palau Peace Corps Volunteers and Staff!
Welcome to the Palau PCV 50th Anniversary Organization Blogsite.
MARK YOUR CALENDARS for JULY 3 - 9, 2016
and make plans now to join the
50th Anniversary Celebration
of Peace Corps in Palau!
Did you know that since Micro 1 arrived, back in the summer of 1966, there have been 370 PCV's who served in Palau? I was happy to discover that, in fact, there are 17 other former Peace Corps Volunteers who now reside in Palau. Recently a core group of former PCV's and staff met to form a non-profit organization to plan a celebration of the 50-year presence of Peace Corps in Palau. The Palau PCV 50th Anniversary Organization is now officially chartered by the Government of Palau. According to the by-laws, membership in the Organization is automatic for any person residing in Palau who is a current or former U.S. PCV or member, past or present, of the Peace Corps staff. Board meetings are held the first Tuesday of every month and the general membership meets the third Tuesday. Officers of the Organization are:
Judy Dean, President
Lynn Polloi, Vice President
Bill Keldermans, Treasurer
Goretti Masayos, Secretary
We have a lot of ideas to make the 50th Anniversary Celebration a fun time for former PCV's and their families. Check this blog often, as we will be posting updates on our progress, travel tips, event schedules and more.
