It was a whirlwind overnight visit to Danao, the undisputed extreme adventure capital of Bohol. Your Roving Eye was there to chair the panel of judges that would determine who gets to be crowned as the first- ever Bb. Danao.

The glamorous highlight of Danao’s town fiesta celebration was organized not only to select a qualified lady as the town’s bet for Miss Bohol but also to draw attention to the plight of PWD’s or Persons with Disabilities.

Inspired by the success of Glyssa Bingas Perez who gave Danao its first- ever Miss Bohol crown, the organizers were able to gather nine of the town’s fairest to compete in the Bb. Danao 2017 Pageant. Held at the brand- new Louis Thomas R. Gonzaga Memorial Cultural Center, the fast- paced two- hour jampacked show was ably hosted by three witty emcees namely; Jerah Lin Orapa, Dexy Claire Canete and Sherwin Trazo

While waiting for the show to start, Your Roving Eye had a casual chat with Mayor Naty Gonzaga who I congratulated for the town’s brand- new cultural center and the remarkable signs of economic activity in the town. Mayor Gonzaga shared that she’s very proud of the town’s people who are now empowered through livelihood projects and opportunities that have been supported by funds and technical know- how by various govt. agencies.
