The Police Regional Office (PRO) 6 (Western Visayas) on Friday marked the celebration of the \u201cFiesta sa Kampo 2022\u201d with the holding of the “Laro ng Lahi” as one way to revive the traditional games.<\/p>\n
In an interview, PRO-6 spokesperson Maj. Grace Borio said events lined up included sack race, planting straw, flour, and obstacle relays; tumbang preso; Pinoy Henyo; habulan ng baboy; catch my egg baby; hampas palayok; ubusan ng lahi; and pabitin.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe objective is of course to build camaraderie and friendship among the personnel of PRO-6 and of course to revive our tradition during fiestas through our ‘Laro ng Lahi’,\u201d Borio said.<\/p>\n
She added that it was the first time the regional headquarters introduced traditional games.<\/p>\n
The most anticipated, she said, was the habulan ng baboy where two hogs placed inside a pen would serve as a prize.<\/p>\n
It is open to female personnel who will be blindfolded during the game.<\/p>\n
Whoever catches the hog will have the privilege of bringing it home.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have designated personnel who will participate in every activity so that our function in our respective offices will not be left out,\u201d Borio said.<\/p>\n
The celebration started with an early morning procession and Holy Mass.<\/p>\n
In the afternoon before the games started, the regional headquarters treated 100 children of its host villages \u2013barangays Veterans Village and Concepcion in City Proper \u2013 to gift-giving, parlor games, and feeding activities. (PNA)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
