Fun with Sun Treasure Hunt at Samal Island

As part of the continuing summer events of the Island Garden City of Samal (IGACOS), I have joined a Treasure Hunting adventure race as event marshal. It was held at the Paseo del Embarcadero, Baywalk, IGACOS on May 25, 2013 and was a major offering of Sun Cellular Network. It was jointly spearheaded by MFPI, MFSM and Bugsay Davao.

 Dubbed as “Scavenger Hunt with a Twist,” the event was participated by more or less twenty (20) teams mostly mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts. It was a six-hour race composed of two members per team regardless of gender. Participating teams were tasked to put together all identified treasures and present it to the race personnel on or before the cut-off time. Every gathered treasure had a corresponding point for the teams. A team garnering the highest total points without getting beyond the mechanics were declared grand winners.

Team Edge Outdoors bested other contenders onward to bringing home the championship cash prize and trophy. Team DDS won second place while Team TRIMMOC settled for third place.

Special thanks to event Director Jun Bacus for the invitation.
