The Municipality of Sinacaban, Misamis Occidental, in Mindanao, Philippines, celebrates its Annual Town Fiesta every March 19.
This year (2009) I was able to take a few video clips of their program held at the Quirino Park in front of the Municipal Building. The ethnic dance featured here is one of the entries presented during the 2009 Sinakbang Festival held at the Sinacaban Beach on February 19, 2009.
The annual festivity is held in honour of their Patron Saint St. Joseph the Worker, who had been venerated by devotees and residents as their exemplar and protector against sickness, poverty, and calamities which struck the town quite a number of times.
The celebration brought together the 17 barangay residents who modestly shared the fruits of their abundant and productive harvests, the result of the meticulously planned social architecture, honed and inspired by their charismatic leader Mayor Dello Tare Lood, in collaboration with the Sangguniang Bayan presided by Vice Mayor Anecito Salomsom Mejares. Of course, the execution of the details were carried out with efficient fervour by the amiable barangay chairmen and their council.
The afternoon cultural show was graced by the presence of the province's "FPJ" the congenial Vice Governor Francisco Paylaga, Jr.
That is the Vice Gov Eufracio Lood Memorial Museum and Public Library. It also houses the Office of the Association of Barangay Captains (ABC) of Sinacaban, Mis. Occ.
