Miss Tagbilaran & Miss Bohol Reunion Photo


When the Chocolate Hills Lady Jaycees took over the staging of the annual search for Mutya sa Tagbilaran in the summer of 1989, there was little fanfare and there were no expectations at all

The unexpected mega success of their first ever Mutya sa Tagbilaran boosted their confidence and made them overnight experts on pageantry

They were able to institutionalize the pageant from the recruitment of potential candidates to the staging of the pageant & coronation night

From 1989 until 1999, the dynamic Chocolate Hills Lady Jaycees oversaw the production of the pageant, considered one of the highlights of the fiesta celebration of Tagbilaran City

I have been involved with the production of these pageants from project assistant to pageant emcee.



I was the pageant’s emcee on the following years; 1993,1996,1997, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2008, 2009 and 2010

I owe my start in emceeing and event coordination to these superheroines from the Chocolate Hills Lady Jaycees

GROUP PHOTO OF MISS TAGBILARAN WINNERS

 
Imagine the nostalgic moment when I got hold of this group photo of five former Miss Tagbilaran winners & a runner up. 


Three of them went on to become Miss Bohol Sandugo queens during their years of reign

One is a Supreme Court lawyer while another is a Connecticut- based doctor of medicine. There is a banker also. Two others are US- based nurses and another one is a businesswoman in Canada

This photo was taken in April 29, 1999 during the 10th year anniversary of Mutya sa Tagbilaran that was won by Marime Marapao
