Rotary Club of Midtown Butuan

Pitching to international judges by day, bringing down the house by night.

Day 1 of DISCON 2026 at NUSTAR Cebu was an absolute movie. From Sec. Marissa Yee representing the CARAGA Region with unmatched "Garbo" (pride) during the Bridge to Business program, to celebrating massive community milestones at the District Awards.

But if you know Midtown Butuan, you know we also bring the energy to the Welcome Party and Rotarians Got Talent.

Watch until the end to see how District 3860 really celebrates!

We don’t just talk about making a difference—we have the receipts to prove it.

Flipping through the official Rotary District 3860 Yearbook here at DISCON Cebu 2026, and we couldn’t be prouder to see the Rotary Club of Midtown Butuan pages!

Under the leadership of Club President Myra Joseal Moreno and Secretary Marissa B. Yee, the 2025-2026 Rotary Year has been packed with action. From planting trees and transforming communities to empowering the next generation, every name and every photo on these pages represents real, tangible impact in Butuan City.

Here’s to the leaders, the members, and the moments that made this year unforgettable!

POV: When community service meets main character energy.

We are absolutely bursting with pride watching our very own Teresita “TakTak” Muriel Si and Rosalyn "Sally" Cortel take center stage.

Not only are they powerhouse members of the Rotary Club of Midtown Butuan, but they are also stepping up to serve as District Leaders and Committee Chairs for the entire District 3860!

Raising the flag for Midtown Butuan!

Seeing our club flag standing tall alongside our fellow clubs of Rotary International District 3860 is a great reminder of the massive network we are a part of. From local action to district-wide impact, this team is always ready.

From center stage last night to center stage this morning. The hustle never stops!

Day 2 of DISCON Cebu 2026 kicked off bright and early. By 7:30 AM, our Club President Myra Joseal Moreno together with the club presidents of Areas 3E and 3F were already suited up, flags raised, and ready to represent!

It is all about balance—celebrating our culture one night and diving deep into strategy and leadership the next morning.

We are so proud to see the Midtown Butuan flag flying high here in Cebu!

We serve the community, but tonight, we are serving LOOKS and pure cultural pride!

Happening TONIGHT: The District 3860 Welcome Party at DISCON 2026 and the CARAGA Cluster did not come to play!

Check out our Rotary Club of Midtown Butuan leaders absolutely glowing in their traditional Manobo attire. They are hitting the big stage tonight to represent our rich regional heritage in the Rotarians Got Talent competition!

From boardroom strategies to center stage, this team does it all.

Drop a ❤️ in the comments to send them some massive luck and cheer on the CARAGA Cluster! Let's go!

While most people were winding down for the night, the grind was just beginning for us.

About last night...

It was late, way past the standard "9 to 5," but we are not standard people. We are Uniting for Good.

The leaders from Area 3E and 3F worked overtime to deliver on a promise. We officially turned over 5 wheelchairs to our partners at the Tactical Operations Group 10 (TOG10) in Bancasi, Butuan City.

Why? Because mobility means freedom, and we believe in creating Lasting Impact, even if it means losing a little sleep to get the job done!

Look at these photos—this is what Service Above Self actually looks like at 10 PM.

Thank you to Former Secretary of National Defense Delfin Negrilo Lorenzana who was truly a big help to
Make C-130 fly to Butuan.

Real impact doesn't have a curfew. 🌙💪

The leaders of Area 3E and 3F are always ready to serve, no matter the hour! We were on the ground late at TOG 10 Bancasi for the highly anticipated arrival of the wheelchairs for the "Walk with Faith" project.

Coordinating logistics like this takes massive teamwork, but knowing that many lives in our community are about to be changed makes every late night completely worth it.

Massive shoutout to everyone who showed up in their End Polio Now gear to get the job done! This is what Uniting for Good looks like in action. 🤝✨

Last Sunday, our leaders hit the road to Cabadbaran City for a crucial Area Coordination Meeting hosted by the amazing Assistant Governor Lanie Milan!

With the new Rotary Year officially launching on July 1, we are in our final month of full-speed hustle. Leaders from across Area 3E and Area 3F came together to align our goals, brainstorm, and make sure we finish this year strong while preparing to hit the ground running for the next.

Who says changing the world can't happen over a great cup of coffee? We are busy Uniting for Good!
