Tangub City did it again! The Tribu Sinanduloy, entry of Tangub City, Misamis Occidental, Mindanao to the Sinulog 2010 streetdancing competition this year, bagged the top plum anew. Tribu Sinanduloy is the defending champion for the Sinulog-based category. And to add another feather to their cap, Tribu Sinanduloy also bagged the street dancing award!
Tangub City has bagged nine championship trophies since they first joined the Cebu festival in 1994. Their Sinulog 2010 victory is their ninth.
The dancers from Tangub City, Mindanao highlighted bountiful harvest blessed by Sto. Nino, the patron saint of Cebu City. Tribu Sinanduloy of Tangub brought with them large scarecrows, a carabao, neon green bamboo and other bright, attractive props.
The huge crowd at the Cebu City Sports Center was so impressed with their performance that many people at the bleachers gave them a standing ovation. Those at the VIP section also stood up and waved at the dancers after their rousing performance.
Tangub City officials led by mayor Jennifer Tan received the P1 Million cash prize – P500,000 for winning the Sinulog-based category and another P500,000 for the street dancing competition.
Tan, along with the Tribu Sinanduloy choreographer and other city officials, accepted the prizes Monday during the awarding ceremonies held at Cebu City Sports Center (Abellana).
Reports here in Cebu City say that at least 8 million people joined the Sinulog@30 2010 festivities. Authorities say that 3.5 million watched the Sinulog grand parade Sunday.
