“Save the last for best”.
That’s how Mayor Salvador G. Escalante Jr. remarked on the grand finals of the ‘Star Ka Sa Cadiz 2010” last January 30, at the jam-packed Don Bernardo L. Benedicto Community Center in Cadiz City.
“This is the best of all’, Mayor Escalante declared, referring to the grand event. He admired of the show’s highly-creative, innovative and artistic presentation.
According to Mayor, the event was innovated with splendid direction, including technical details on stage and on the over-all production.
He also thanked the staff and personnel of the City Information Office for the tremendous success the event has ever achieved. “It has added push to the 36th Dinagsa Festival 2010”, he added.
The CIO and a pool of creative minds employed some multimedia outputs with a touch of uniqueness to the “Star” production.
