The event, dubbed as "FIESTA ng OWWA at HATID SAYA sa BAHRAIN 2009", will start at 12nn at the Hotel Delmon poolside.
It will feature Filipino games, showcase of traditional practices, entertainment numbers, raffle, bingo bonanza, and food. The highlight of the celebration is the parade of beautiful Filipinas with their consorts (called Flowers of May), clod in their best gowns and outfits.
The celebration is aimed at sharing the Filipino culture with the good people of Bahrain, strengthen the unity and camaraderie among Filipinos in the kingdom, and most especially, support the “OWWA Tuloy Aral Program” – a scholarship program which gives financial assistance to the underprivileged but deserving boys and girls to acquire primary through college education. Proceeds from the event through sponsorship and pledges will go straight to this worthwhile cause.
The event, which was started by TIKOB on May 2005 in partnership with the Philippine POLO- OWWA is running on its fifth year now, and has been one of the well-attended projects of the Triskelions. The major sponsor for the event is Bahrain Financing Company.
For further inquiries, please contact TIKOB Grand Triskelion Louie Nagales (39062392) or Philippine Welfare Officer Alice Lim (39747687).
