Members of a dance troupe from a school in Olongapo City present a native Filipino number, with the lead dancer holding a small statue of San Roque, during the ‘Balik-Tanaw’ music and dance competition in celebration of the 85th Feast of San Roque, the patron saint of Subic Freeport, on August 15.  This year’s ‘Karakol’ program included a mass at the San Roque Chapel, a parade from the chapel, and a music/dance contest at the Harbor point mall. – JONAS REYES
