DAPITAN CITY (Nov.5, 20`15) -- November is deemed a month of Special Events in Dapitan City which is not only popular for being the Shrine City of the Philippines, a Heritage City and City of Stars, City Tourism Officialo said.

City tourism Officer Apple Marie Agolong said Dapitan City is not only known as a Heritage City and City of Stars but also a city of festivals with 6 festivals being celebrated yearly in order to push its bid to maintain its stature as one of the vibrant tourist destinations in the Philippines.

The first to take center stage is the “ULANG FESTIVAL” in Barangay Opao every November 6 and 7 which is to be participated in by the Barangays along the riverbanks. It is the 5th Festival of the city.

Agolong said services and entertainment will be brought there by the Local Government Unit (LGU) as well as various contest and competitions with the main purpose of showcasing the abundance of our river and that there is a need to protect those species found therein.

The second big event Aolong said is the Search for Ginoong Dapitan 2015, now in its 3rd Year with the main purpose of showcasing the sculpted bodies of men achieved through exercise, body building and a lot of discipline which is believed to be Datu Pagbuaya's physique as well as that of his men.

Agolong added that this event will also inspire young men and women to go to the gym or just do their exercise and do away with booze and vices.

Most importantly, the winner of our Ginoong Dapitan will have a chance to compete in the National Level giving us a chance to showcase our talents and pride. Among the judges is a Dapitanon who is successful in his chosen field, the President of RDH Entertainment, Mr. Richard Hinola and Actor/Model Mr. Johan Moriele Santos, she said.

To give us entertainment she added that during the intermission numbers is Actress/Model Ms. Christine Almaden together with other FHM Models.

Ladies and gentlemen, catch them live and be awed by both physical attributes and entertainment on November 25, 2015 at the Dapitan City Cultural and Sports Center! Agolong invited. (By JDC)
