CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION-Another First in Calubian History

Christmas is over as we celebrated the Feast of the Three Kings. But as the season passed by, Calubianons will never forget the experienced brought about by season as every sector, government and private entities had joined hand in hand to make the celebration a memorable as it is. Influenced by ideas spearheaded by the Local Chief Executive Hon. Dodong Palconit to mobilize all the sectors to come up with a plan for a better and colorful Christmas celebration. The lighting of the streets of the entire Metro Calubian and the extravagant decorations of the Municipal plaza and the Municipal Ground at the Veloso hill has made the occasion very special, and perhaps another first during Mayor Palconit's administration. Calubianons, young and old, were very excited as the switching of Christmas lights were done simultaneously in all areas last November 29, 2011. After the switching ceremony, the enthusiasts were very eager to see the lights in all the venues. It was really a great and memorable expereince for Calubianons to see such christmas decorations.
