Thousands of people are already inside of the Gymnasium watching the street dancing competitions. The Local Officials ordered the organizers to do it inside of the gymnasium so they can avoided intense heat. Gladly the gym is very wide and it can fit thousands of people. Each side of the Provincial road contains lots of tents and parked Vehicles. Law inforcers also at the areas helping to maintain the peace and order during the activities.

The next place I went was here at Newly renovated Andres Bonifacio's Statue located at the other side of the Public Plaza. It is surrounded with bricks and great landscapes on which ornamental plants are place at the middle of the landscapes. People are already inside of the Gymnasium for the street dancing event that is why there are only few here.

During The Street Dancing Competition:

Next, I went inside of the Gymnasium to watched the street dancing competition and people are cheering each participants. I was very amazed of the colorful and festive costumes they wear and they did their best to win the competition. Each Dance presentation takes 5 minutes minimum and The Judges are came from far places. Having street dancing is one of the best activities every Founding Anniversary and the Local Officials are very thankful to all participants who participated the events. It takes a day of the event and another activities awaits for tomorrow's activities. Until next post, have a nice day to everyone.
