It was an extravagant opening of Kadayawan Day 1.
After the fun and exciting first day, #TeamDDI (Davao Digital Influencers Inc.) the Official Social Media Partner of Kadayawan 2018 is ready for day 2 activities, starting with the Kadayawan Dragon Boat held at the Sta. Ana Pier, Davao City.
There are 20 teams comes from Manila, Cebu City, Surigao City, Iligan City, IGACOS and Davao City competing for the Dragon Boat. It has five categories which include the open standard boat, mixed standard boat, women small boat, open small boat and mixed small boat. The boats donated from Manila last year was used during the competition.
The Philippine National Police bags two gold medals while Kujaw Dragons and Polilo Dragons take one gold medal each in the first day of the 2nd Kadayawan Dragon Boat Festival.
The defending champion PNP Team A (Manila based) retained its title of 400-meter open small category by checking in at 1:44.98, racing with the PNP Team B 1:46.22, United Paddlers Club 1:48.23 and Davao City's Dragon Warriors 1:58.01 which occupied the next three places in the finals.
Next stop is the Grand Coronation of Hiyas sa Kadayawan 2018, held at the Filoil V Event Center (formerly the RMC Gym).
The gym was already filled to the rafters after an hour waiting, even us the Kadayawan social media partner have a hard time before we could find our seats, though they have designated place for the media the place is still too small for us considering other non-media taking our place. And there were very long queues outside even after the program has started.
Hiyas opening production number is so extravagant! The tribes representatives came in and each tribes showcase their best and give their smiles for their supportive fans.
The cheers coming from their families and friends were so loud and so fun to hear. I myself also shout and give my cheers and praises to all the 11 tribes - KAGAN, KLATA-GUIANGAN, MAGUINDANAON, MARANO, MATIGSALOG, ATA, SAMA, OVU-MANUVO, TAGABAWA, TAUSUG, IRANUN.

Hiyas sa Kadayawan are not judged based on beauty and poise unlike any other pageant, instead they are all judged based on how well they know and understand their owned culture, traditions and history.
In the end, this lass from the Kagan tribe was named 2018 Hiyas sa Kadayawan.
Congratulation Hiyas sa Kadayawan!!!!
Hiyas sa Panaghiusa - Sittie Aisha Salim - Maranao Tribe
Hiyas sa Kalambuan - Karen Joy Dowing - Klata Tribe
The winners received their respective crowns with the design of Waling-Waling or Vanda sanderiana - the queen of Philippine orchids!
This is it for now. Watch out for my remaining blogs about Kadayawan 2018. See yah!
