Who says 13 is an unlucky number? With 13 as their entry number, ASAT team debunked this superstitious belief as they scored a two-peat feat during the Aggao nac Cagayan Sand Sculpturing Contest.
The Sand Sculpturing Contest was one of the major events in the celebration of the 436th Aggao Na Cagayan. Having been adjudged as first place out of 46 competing teams, ASAT brought home a cash prize amounting to 60,000.00 and a trophy. After receiving the cash prize, the team decided to donate the half of the cash prize to the school in order to buy aircon for the ICT laboratory while the remaining 30,000.00 were evenly distributed to each of the participants. When asked about their thoughts of their second victory, Mr. Donald B. Aguinaldo said “After our historic win in the very first Sand Sculpturing contest last year, ASAT and the team are grateful to have this back to back championship. It was not an easy win for the group as the members of the group are new and the fact that there were also other teams who are more prepared to edge the competition.”
