Mayor Tiu added that skimriders from Luzon have signified their intention to join the competition. This is a welcome development, Mayor Tiu said, because in the past, the local participants were all from the Visayas and Mindanao areas. Mayor Tiu informed that the 5th National Philippines Skimboarding Competition will formally kick-off on December 27 but the nightly activities at the Site will start on December 20 as the local government decided to hold the annual Kaadlawan Festival there. The Opening Program will be held on December 27, at 1:00 o'clock in the afternoon. Mayor Tiu said that the National Skimboarding Competition is the town's contribution to President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo's thrust of making the Central Philippines Super Region as the Tourism Capital of the Philippines.
