girds for Fiesta Circa 2009 All
roads will lead to this history-rich coastal municipality come May 5 this year. The
annual festivity banners the theme "Usa ka Debosyon, Usa ka Kasaulugan sa
usa ka Katawhan."
Mayor
Leoncio B. Evasco Jr., recently formed working committees to assure success of
the festivity. The town's chief executive also announced that like last year's
celebration, visitors will be treated to dinning tables on feast day only, May

crisis felt by the people, "it is practical to do it this way."
