Mayor Salvador G. Escalante Jr., who has the vision of transforming Cadiz into a zero-waste City, becomes creative as he takes an innovative way of celebrating the Cadiz City 42nd Charter Day Anniversary on July 1 – 4, this year, with the application of “resiklo” concept in most of the prominent events.

The “Basura Arts Skills Olympic” and “Disenyo Resiklo”, as part of the Mayor’s full-swing implementation of RA 9003 or Solid Waste Management Act, will offer a unique entertainment stance for the people as they will both suck up the whole day opening on July 1.

The “Basura” is a unique home decor making contest using the recyclable materials available in the locality. It will start at 1PM at the Cadiz City Park. Jerry Artuyo chairs the event.

The the “Disenyo”, on the other hand, is an artistic fashion show of festival costume with headdress, futuristic costume and long gown. This will also use the recyclable materials. Chaired by Victor Parina, the fashion show will begin illuminating the Don Bernardo L. Benedicto Community Center at 7PM.

A night of “resiklo“ fashion show will also be buffed up with the launching of the “Dalamguhanon Sang Cadiznons”, an album consisting of environmental songs composed and written by the “Tribu Resiklo”. The “Tribu” is composed of Jun Torreverde, Rany Barrieses, Ely Mayo Diola and Jude Jaropillo.

Seeing that the “resiklo” concept is about the past, the Mayor also includes “Handumanan Sang Kahapon Sang Cadiz” to add spice to the one day festivities. The “Handumanan” is a contest for old photos taken before and/ or when Cadiz became a City. This is chaired by Filbert Arceño and Lyn Regodos.

Day two is a long day for drivers when the “1st Trisikol Sektor Holiday” will invade the streets. ABC President and Councilor Wilfredo Cervantes chairs the “pasalamat sa trisikol driver” moment at the Don Bernardo L. Benedicto Community Center.

A Motard race will cap the Day 3.

On July 4, the day Cadiz became a City, a fabulous float parade will be shown with the participating barangays and the Department of Education.

At 2PM, the City Information Office will make history as it will hold the final judging and awarding of winner to the “Masthead Making Contest” for use of the Cadiz Bulletin at the Cadiz Information Center along Abelarde – Cabahug Streets.

A fireworks display and an all-night-long street party that will feature most popular bands will highlight the Cadiz City 42nd Charter Day Anniversary./*
