9 GenSan Barangays slug it out for 2008 Summerkadahan Cheerdance Contest




12 May 2008 36 views 4 Comments

Nine barangays from General Santos City’s 26 joined the Summerkadahan’s Cheerdance Competition this afternoon of May 12, 2008 at the Oval Plaza Covered Court. The contest is a featured activity of the 2008 Summerkadahan Sportsfest which saw various youth groups from General Santos City’s Barangays vying for the top berths in the basketball and volleyball tournaments.

Based on records, this year’s incarnation of this annual summer youth sports camp drew the most number of participants and is the most heavily-attended so far, thanks mostly to the work of the staff of the Office of the Representative of the First District of South Cotabato, Congresswoman Darlene Antonino-Custodio, the SK Federation under Chairman Jane Calunsag and that of the Sports Development Division under the City Mayor’s Office.
