JCI Regatta traces its roots back to the humble beginnings at Santa Maria Parish Church, where its founders laid the groundwork for establishing the local organization.
In 2009, National President Fulbert Woo, JCI Iloilo President Rex Chua, and Charter President Elmer Usi invited members of the Santa Maria Parish and their network of young individuals to join what would become one of the most awarded JCI chapters in Western Visayas.
