Silahis ng Pasko 2018 curtains go down with joy and lifetime memories

-

THE 45TH Silahis ng Pasko sa Baguio Christmas Season celebratio­n came down with three prominent caring and sharing events last week with our leading city officials City Mayor Mauricio Domogan, Congressma­n Mark Go, CSWDO Dept. Head and yours truly at the helm for the Baguio Balikbayan Day welcome rites, the awards and recognitio­n ceremonies for the 22 Most Outstandin­g Senior Citizens from the city and the Province of Benguet and the recognitio­n program for the most outstandin­g internatio­nal sportsmen from the KKISLAP offering of the National Correspond­ents Club of Baguio (NCCB).

Even with the inclement weather condition last Dec. 28, the program went on smoothly at the Baguio Sunshine Park. The pictures on this spread, courtesy of Colorworld recorded the historical event which is proudly a part of the Silahis ng Pasko sa Baguio episode. A simple “pinikpikan salo salo” in honor of the awardees and visitors courtesy of the CSWDO, City Tourism Office and the DOT-CAR, climaxed the city’s Christmas Season program.

Again, we would like to thank all the wonderful supporters, sponsors and event participan­ts of the annual event which has been so blessed in many ways since it started in 1973 as a very special National Balikbayan Christmas Season program jointlty sponsored by the City of Baguio, the Department of Tourism under the leadership of the late Tourism Secretary Jose Aspiras and the cosmopolit­an residents of Magandang Baguio as a whole. God Bless each and every one of us. Happy New Year ka da tayo amin!
