Dimpy Jazmines of Sky performed the emceeing chores, while Hanz Cubillan, also from Sky, led the Recitation of the Lopez Credo & Values.
Birthday celebrants for May were then recognized as they were presented with a birthday cake, and the traditional Stretching/Exercise portion went underway as Trini Trinidad of Whiplash and the Rockwell Club spearheaded the entire crowd in warming up.
Before trudging the planned walking route, August Villalon from the EDC Disaster and Preparedness Rescue Unit delivered a short Safety Briefing to further ensure the safety of the walkers along the way.
