On August 2009, the Festival observed its
10th year (Paper) Anniversary.
Every contingent depicts any oceanic creatures symbolizing the target of fishing and thus other members play the role as fishermen or farmers.
Dancing is their way of thanking and praising God for the good harvest.
Like Sinulog in Cebu,
they also have festival queens but what is different is that the queen don't hold any image representing the patron.
She only dance as a form of representing as one of the God-given beauty.
