Get ready, Bataan!
Pawikan Festival 2025 is just around the corner, and this November 29 at the Pawikan Conservation Center, Morong, we come together once again to celebrate, protect, and honor our beloved Pawikan. This year, we are excited to welcome Ms. Antoinette Taus, Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), as our special guest, joining us in inspiring communities to care for our environment.
From the heartwarming Walk for a Cause, the releasing of hatchlings, to creative competitions like Pawikan Hat Making, Sand Sculpture, and Paddle Painting, the day is filled with activities that bring families, advocates, and nature lovers together. Also, stay tuned as the champion of the Pawikan Creative Dance Competition will be awarded on the same day, adding even more excitement to the celebration. It’s a day of art, action, and appreciation for our marine friends and the people who protect them. Together, let’s make a difference and help save the Pawikan!
