4th Sinulog sa Bansalan


The 4th Sinulog sa Bansalan will be held this coming January 14, 2010, Friday. At present, the Local Government Unit thru the Office of the Municipal Tourism has been dedicating its time for the preparation of the said event. It can be recalled that that this festive celebration was first introduced by Hon. Edwin G. Reyes to the people of Bansalan during his first few months as mayor last January 2008. Reyes is a devotee to the Holy Infant Jesus, the Sto. Niño. Nine-day novena in honor to Sr. Sto. Nino is also being done at the municipal lobby every afternoon since last week.

For this year's activity, the day will be graced by a celebration of the Holy Eucharist at the Municipal Lobby at 6:00 o'clock in the morning. After the mass, which will be officiated by Rev. Fr. Cris Violon, comes the Sinulog Street Dancing Competition. In the past years, the contest was exclusive only for the employees of the Local Government. However, 2011 is more joyful because the organizers had decided to open it to the different schools and private sectors in Bansalan. There will be a total of seven groups who will join the friendly competition. For them, joining the Sinulog sa Bansalan is not merely a contest, but a gesture of thanksgiving to Sr. Sto.Niño.

The event this coming January 14 will also be covered live by the first FM Radio Station in Bansalan,91.1 Bansalan FM.It is also aired via live audio streaming at www.bansalanfm.weebly.com
