If you're wondering what's the story behind that streamer they're holding, well here it is in a nutshell.
"Two To Go, La Salle!" is the Lasallista's battle cry next year (2009), serving as a countdown to the institution's centennial in 2011.
"Two To Go, La Salle!" is likewise the title of the Taft Homecoming on March 7, 2009 chaired by Bobong Velez [DLSC HS64]. Next year's jubilarians are those who graduated in the years ending in 4 or 9 (e.g. 1939, 1984, etc.). [Which explains why Mike Enriquez and Adie Pena are shamelessly plugging the event. Both belong to DLSC GS64.]
