Posted on Nov 01 2011
Kagman High School students recently volunteered their time and services to the Kagman Community Center, which is busy preparing for a grand opening.
The students helped beautify the inside of the center and cut out black sheets of paper that were attached to the window frames to block out the sun.
Daniel Huh, president of Kagman Komunidat Association, said he is very thankful for the assistance extended by these students and hopes that more Kagman residents would help out. Certificates of service will be given to these students.
Huh also acknowledged the assistance of Rep. Ramon Basa and his helper, John Camacho; Rep. Fredrick Deleon Guerrero and MINA members; Laolao Golf Resort president Kwang Joong Kim, general manager Tetsuya Matsunaga and the lawn mowing team; JKPL executive director John Oliver Gonzales and the Bookmobile team; the Kagman Community Center staff, especially technician John Aldan and finance manager Priscilla Castro.
“I want to inform Kagman residents that the Bookmobile is making weekly visits to the Kagman Community Center on Tuesday afternoons starting November. The mobile carries all sorts of books for adults and children,” Huh said.
He said the center is also scheduling several educational programs, including music and Korean language classes, leadership training, and first-time driving practice, etc.
“I have a vision that Kagman will be the Manhattan of the CNMI in the future. I think ’Kag’ has the meaning of ’two (or many)-storied building.’ ’Man’ can be interpreted into ’10,000 or many.’ I’m humbly asking governmental agencies and businesses for more assistance, cooperation, and donation. Right now, we need to repair the aircon and install the solar street lights costing over $20,000. There is a saying, ‘Heaven helps those who help themselves.’ But I’d like to say, ‘Heaven helps those who help each other,’” said Huh.
