This morning is the Awarding Ceremony of the Ten Outstanding Scouts of Manila, held at the Agusto Syjuco Scout Center, along Balagtas Street, Malate in Manila.  Ten Scouts were recognized as Outstanding Scouts and one of them is my daughter, Kalikasan U. Castillo.

The awarding ceremony was presided-over by Manila Council Chairman Emeritus Harry C. Angpin (see picture below).  This year’s search committee was composed of the following Scout Leaders – Mr. Nelson Binondo, who chairs the committee; Pastor Leonides Son; Ms. Linda Abubu; and Mr. Florence Antonio.

The awarding ceremony was organized in conjunction with the 87th Foundation Anniversary of the Manila Council of the Boy Scouts of the Philippines.  Below is the pictures of my daughter with her proud mother.  It is with great regret that I was not able to attend this awarding ceremony.  I had to attend an important presentation to make in graduate school.

Below is a picture of my daughter – THE Outstanding Scout of Manila 2010.  If you know what I mean (read between the lines, man!).  I am so so proud of her!
