The annual independence day picnic has always offered surprises for everyone. The release of 110 Doves to commemorate the 110th Anniversary of Philippine Independence was a sight to behold. It was a very emotional experience to see the birds flutter while everyone sings “Bayan Ko”… The day continued with Volleyball tournaments, all day entertainment with special guest for everyone to enjoy.
