A Fundraising Drive for Michael Say-awen Jr.

We wanted to express our sincere gratitude to everyone who joined us today! We were especially delighted to see so many young faces participating, with more or less 15 kids under 10 years old bravely taking on the climb!

We commend the parents who are fostering a love for the outdoors in their children. Our hope is to inspire a generation that not only cherishes nature as much as we do but also becomes stewards of the environment that surrounds and sustains us.

We also would like to thank one of our founding members, Frytz Say-awen, brother of Michael Jr, who provided a sumptuous lunch of pinikpikan for everyone to enjoy.

A special shout out also goes to Mr. Brian Bawaan for assisting in belayer duties up until closing time.

For those who were not able to attend but would like to donate to the cause for Mike, you may send your donations directly to the GCash Account of Connie Caloguedan at +63 919 355 8532 or thru her LBP Account at Connie Caloguedan Bolares | 104 702 5385.

Until the next climb!

Registration will be Php 200 for each attendee to be paid onsite. For questions, feel free to send us a message.

Unlimited rock climbing shall also take place at the Paytokan Wall in the later hours from 6.30 AM onwards until the weather permits. Registration will be Php 400 each inclusive of equipment use and your own personal belayer, to be paid on site. Pinikpikan will also be served to attendees. For questions, you may message Sagada Rock Climbing - Paytokan Wall.

Both activities are family friendly and are fun outdoor experiences for a great cause. See you there!
