BALON DAGUPAN NEWS
THIS year’s Bangus Festival set will be filled with fun-filled activities involving families – the children, their parents and their grandparents.
This was bared by Mayor Belen T. Fernandez during the flag raising ceremony on Monday at the city plaza.
The year 2018 has been declared by Fernandez as the Year of the Family through an Executive Order.
Among the activities of the Bangus Festival as outlined by the mayor include family games at the Tondaligan Park, lighting of the Pantal Bridge, along with a family fun run at night, and a cookfest involving children and their parents.
The Beach Volleyball Republic Inc, an organized group of well-known former and current volleyball athletes, will be on hand during festival’s opening day to hold exhibition games and competitions.
The group will also conduct orientation for children and their families to promote beach volleyball as a way of spending quality and sporty time among children.
The cookfest will also be a family activity with children cooking the dish and their parents will serve as their master chef to guide and coach them in cooking.
“We will also light the Pantal Bridge and do a family fun-run after,” said Fernandez.
On the other hand, the Liga ng mga Barangay has endorsed Liga ng mga Barangay president Marcelino Fernandez to be this year’s Bangus Festival chairman and Pogo-Chico Punong Barangay Bryan Kua as vice-chairman.
