 Message from the Convener 
Hope - from Touching Hearts, LSC 75th Anniversary Musical
On behalf of the LSCOBA Global Reunion 2007 organizing committee, I would like to invite all Lasallians to this home coming event.
During the past few years, the North American Chapters have organized the annual gathering for old boys around the globe. It started off with friendly soccer tournaments and the momentum picks up steadily with more old boys joining each year. This year, our Alma Mater is celebrating her 75th Jubilee and Hong Kong naturally plays host to the 2007 global reunion.
We might have wandered at considerable distance after leaving school but La Salle College has always been in our hearts and memories. It was there that we met our oldest and dearest friends, those that have influenced our future in one way or the other.
I would like to share with you Max Ehrmann's RETURNING HOME
We are all ships returning home
laden with life's experience,
memories of work, good times and sorrows,
each with his special cargo;
And it is our common lot
to show the marks of the voyage,
here a shattered prow, there a patched rigging,
and every hulk turned black
by the unceasing batter of the restless wave.
May we be thankful for fair weather and smooth seas,
and in times of storm have the courage
and patience that mark every good mariner;
And, overall, may we have the cheering hope of joyful meetings,
as our ship at last drops anchor
in the still water of the eternal harbor.
Let us be proud to be part of this great institution. Let our school knows that the old boys will forever stand firm behind her in providing the best education for the youth in Hong Kong.
"Come Home" Lasallians and we shall sing the school song together.
