Re-launching "BAYANIHAN SA BAYAN NI JUAN"

Camp Adobo is relaunching "BAYANIHAN sa BAYAN ni JUAN" with a new date for the Friendship Camp - October 24-26, 2014. We are open for early reservations for SUMMER CAMP 2015 in Ilocos as well. 

Camp Adobo is the country’s most innovative children’s camp program that stirs up and entices your child’s awareness and appreciation for the Philippine’s rich culture and values. This unique recipe is mainly inspired by our strong desire to intensify children’s appetite for Filipino flavored adventures. It comprises a specialized team of educators, events specialists, and outdoor aficionados who are certified through recognized training programs.

The camp and its staff are still highly committed to inculcate essential Filipino values such as “pagiging MAKABAYAN (Nationalism), MAKA-KALIKASAN (Environmentalism), at pagkakaroon ng PANININDIGAN (Independent Thinking)”.

Children aged 6-15 will grow socially, emotionally, mentally, and physically by providing challenging activities that will:

 

•  Build individual character and self-esteem 

• Develop sportsmanship, adaptability and flexibility 

• Encourage children to form social relationships;

 

• Expand logical thinking and         problem-solving skills

• Deepen their love and appreciation for nature.

We formally invite your child/children to have a taste of what CAMP ADOBO has to offer – a feast that will surely make them as exquisite, well-renowned, and proudly Filipino as adobo can be!

 

There are great discounts if you reserve slots for BOTH camps as soon as you can!

MMFF NEW WAVE 2014

For the 40^th year of the Metro Manila Film Festival – New Wave (MMFF), MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino announces that prizes will be much bigger and more exciting.  The MMFF’s “New Wave” competition was the brainchild of MMDA Chairman Francis Tolentino. It was introduced in 2010 due to the continued popularity of “Indie” films that serve as a platform for aspiring student and independent film enthusiasts to showcase their talents.

The festival has four (4) categories namely, Full Length, Animation, Student shorts and Cinephone. Entries for all categories are now being accepted in the MMDA office in Makati City.

The Cinephone competition, meanwhile, is a nationwide cellphone movie-making contest for high school and college students. This year’s theme is “Pagbangon Pagkalipas ng Kalamidad,” a timely theme that would showcase the resilience of Filipinos in times of calamity, to the world. Deadline for submission of entries is October 4, with 60 videos to be selected as finalists.

In celebration of the Ruby Year of the Festival, all feature film entry finalists will be given the rare opportunity to show their films in commercial run in at least 20 cinemas immediately after the festival..

 

The first MMFF New Wave University Caravan was held at the Letran Auditorium. It was a whole day forum for students, independent film makers, film professionals and the like, to discuss the many facets of film making. The next leg of the University Caravan will be at the University of the Philippines Film Institute on August 18, 2014; and another will be in Muntinlupa in Mid-August at the Expo Trade Hall, Festival Mall, Alabang.  The lecture series is open to all. Admission is free.
