A reunion climb for the Local Government of
Sta. Cruz Adventure Club (LOGSAC) will be staged on September 7-9, 2012 at Mt.
Apo using the Sta. Cruz trail, Davao del Sur as part of the celebration of its
5 years of existence. The climb will reunite pioneering and new members of the
club since its inception last February 19, 2007. The climb is also expected to
achieve the following purposes:
Create awareness on environmental protection. As such, the climb
is expected to bring down bulk of garbage from Tinikaran campsites and Mt. Apo
summit. This will be conducted with huge physical support from Sibulan Porters
Association based in sitio Colan.
Actual practice of Leave No Trace Policy (LNT). Since this climb
will be Basic Mountaineering Course (BMC) compliance, all participants will
apply the universal outdoor principle of LNT, whereby a zero impact
mountaineering should be practiced, re: take nothing but pictures, leave
nothing but footprints, kill nothing but time.
Strengthen Club Camaraderie and Friendship. LOGSAC Group has
been existing for five years now and we intend to solidify the bond that keep
us united for that span of time by doing the things we love most, climbing
mountains and doing outdoor adventures.
For five years, we got more than what we
expected from our young group. We reached out to help environmental
conservation and protection advocacies in Region XI given with our minimal
resources.
More or less thirty (30) members will be joining this
climb which will also benefit the Colan, Sibulan community as we will be
conducting outreach program especially to the Bagobo-Tagabawa dwellers.
