City Fiesta features Miss Lapu-Lapu 2009

By Miong Pelimon - Tuesday, November 17, 2009

A Fluvial Parade for Virgen de La Regla-Opon's Patron, last November 12 starts the Traditional and Religious Customs of people in Lapu-Lapu City, formerly Mactan Island during Datu Lapulapu's reign. Im sure every Filipino that passes History in High School know Datu Lapulapu and how he became the first Filipino Hero. Here's a pic taken by me way back 2005.

So much for history. The City of Lapu-Lapu will have its Annual Fiesta on the 20th and 21st of November. The city has grown from just a little town before to one of the highly urbanized cities in Metro Cebu now. The city prepared activities for both the people of Mactan and the visitors that will come. One of the most awaited Events is Miss Lapu-Lapu 2009. I am able to beg some shots from Facebook friends that are also a participant to the Pageant.

Miss Lapu-Lapu 2009 usually will be held in the City's Auditurium just a few meters from the Virgen de Regla National Shrine. The Virgen de Regla Church is besides Saint Alphonsus Catholic School Compound.
