- Welcome to our beloved municipality. Welcome to Kibawe Kong
Mahal. It is a proud moment for me to see our young and talented athletes gathered here today in my hometown. This is the first time that the Municipality of Kibawe hosted the Palarong Panlalawigan. - Congratulations to DepEd Bukidnon for another milestone of Palarong Panlalawigan celebration. Congratulations also to the athletes because you are here to represent your respective district. The conduct of the Palarong Panlalawigan is not only a showcase of youth’s skills and talents in playing competitive sports, but also a venue to hone their values and discipline to make them champions not only in sports but also champions in life. - This palaro surely aims to unite children from different walks of life and to open our eyes on how sports can help realize our children’s dreams and help them prepare for greater opportunities that yet to come. More importantly, the different games that you will be playing inculcates the spirits of discipline, teamwork, excellence, fair play, solidarity and sportsmanship which are more valuable than winning trophies and medals. - To the athletes, I know that all of you are here to win. Whatever the outcome of this event, whether lose or win, remember that the main goal is to gain sportsmanship, camaraderie and unity among the player and non-player participants. - To the coaches, officials and organizers of this event, my co- educator, I laud your commitment in honing our learners’ athletic competency and champion their potentials in the field of sports. - I would like to commend all of you for keeping the fire in your hearts alive as contributor to our country’s development. - Rest assured that I, as an educator and the Mayor of this municipality is one with you in enriching and empowering our students through sports. - Lastly, I leave you with this famous quote that says “Be STRONG when you are WEAK, BRAVE when you are SCARED, and HUMBLE when you are VICTORIOUS”. - Good luck to all our youth athletes, hardworking coaches, officials and organizers. Congratulations everyone and MABUHAY!
