PAGADIAN CITY – With a giant and colorful Christmas tree erected at the City's Plaza Luz which will stay there until the end of January next year, people will no longer go to Tangub City to fascinate themselves and satisfy their eyes with towering Christmas decors, Mayor Sammy Co said.
It’s just a walk and a ride away and then you can find a place like an enchanted kingdom, said City Mayor Sammy Co in his message delivered during the ceremonial switch on of the giant Christmas decor contest as part of the Paskuhan 2007 activity last December 5, 2007. The City Tourism council chaired by Dr. Dicky Fernandez has played a big role in making Paskuhan ’07 a date to remember and a joyful celebration where expensive but so entertaining fireworks display fascinate our eyes while spectators eagerly await the simultaneous lighting up of Christmas decors that surround Plaza Luz, said Mr. Mikel Ganta, a City Hall employee. City Tourism Officer Joy Barrios has invited all the people to visit Plaza Luz and experience spectacular structures that really promote the spirit of festivity in this yuletide season. At least 17 entries are participating in the Christmas decor contest and they have devoted precious time to improve their respective structure to bag the P50,000.00 first prize that is at stake this time.Though the city government is collecting two pesos as gate entrance it’s really worth it. So better spare your leisure time at Plaza Luz with your friends and family”, Barrios added.
The Paskuhan ‘07 is also a kick-off activity of the Pasalamat Festival 2008, the city’s fiesta that gives honor to its Patron Saint, Sto. Niño.
