Ondoy’s ground zero

Want to know more about Ondoy’s ground zero?

Then you better participate in the “Takbo Para Sa Marikina Watershed” this Sunday at the Youth Camp of the Marikina River Park’s west bank.

“We all have heard about Ondoy and how it devastated Marikina. But have you ever been to Ondoy’s ground zero – the Marikina River? What about Provident Village? Experience for yourselves how it feels like to be in the place where flood waters rose to 23 meters above sea level,” said Mayor Del R. De Guzman.

Joining the fundraising run will enable people to learn interesting trivia and experiences from Ondoy.

The fun run will start and end at the Youth Camp of the Marikina River Park’s west bank.

It features exhibits along the route of photos taken during the inundation and in the aftermath of Ondoy.

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that must be in every Filipino’s bucket list,” said De Guzman.
