The second photo contest of the year is Kahimunan Tu Bayugan.
Last January 31, 2016, I and my photographer best buddy drive from Surigao City to Bayugan City in Agusan del Sur to participate in the first ever Kahimunan Tu Bayugan Photo Contest. This Kahimunan Tu Bayugan is different from Kahimunan Festival in Butuan City which is celebrated every third Sunday of January. This Bayugan City version is celebrated every last Sunday of January. Bayugan City is a component city in Agusan del Sur. Its City Mayor is Kim Lope Asis.
Like its Butuan City counterpart, the Kahimunan Tu Bayugan is another celebration paying homage and honor to the Holy Child Jesus or the Sto. Niño. The highlight of the activity is the Solemn Mass which is followed by a colorful and lively street dancing parade of the different contingents in Bayugan's wide avenue.
The climax of the celebration is the ground presentation held at Bayugan City National Comprehensive High School grounds.
The grand presentation lasted for hours that we took our lunch at past 3 in the afternoon at the Sacred Heart Parish convent.
Many thanks to the organizers of this photo contest for a great hosting job.
