Balik Pawikan is here!

This November 27, sa pangunguna ng Lokal na Pamahalaan ng Bayan ng Morong, sama-sama tayong babalik sa kalikasan para kilalanin, alagaan, at ipagdiwang ang ating mga pawikan.
Mula sa Eco-Fun Walk sa umaga, Eco Pledge Wall kung saan maaari kang mag-iwan ng pangakong para sa kalikasan, hanggang sa masining na Art Festival at interactive activities sa Likha at Likas, this day is all about reconnecting with nature and uplifting community action.
Araw ito ng paglalakad, paglikha, pag-aaral, pero higit sa lahat, araw ng pagtulong sa pawikan at sa ating kalikasan. Tara, balik pawikan tayo.
