GUMASA, Glan, Sarangani, April 30 (PIA) --Ten teams will vie for the top honors and cash prizes during the “Sarangani Bay Invasion 2012” otherwise known through the years as Swim-Across-the-Bay, the opening salvo of the May 18-19 Sarangani Bay Festival (SarBay Fest). | |||
For the 15-kilometer swim across Sarangani Bay, a mass will start at 5:00 am from Kamanga Beach, Maasim to Reycon Beach in Tango, Glan on May 18. | |||
“Sarangani Bay Invasion 2012” is open to all swimmers (amateur and professionals) with minimum age of 14. A group of five swimmers comprises a team. | |||
The registration fee of P2,000 per team covers boat rental and gasoline. Deadline for registration is on May 4, 5:00 pm, at the office of the Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office at the Capitol in Alabel (look for Nemrad Butil (083) 5082267, 09163232397 or 09306534953). | |||
The first three teams to reach the finish line at Reycon Beach in Tango, Glan shall be declared winners with the 1st prize of P50,000, 2nd prize – P35,000, and 3rd prize – 25,000, all with medals and trophies.
