Thanks to Dorothy Yepez for the SMILE writeup and this short writeup about our camping and induction in Saipan, San Jose Tarlac

After the outreach (read related SMILE blog HERE), the group headed to another place in San Jose, the Saipan Beach. A good place for picnic, swimming, rafting, camping, etc.

Saipan Beach errrrr River ?!?!?

The locals called it Saipan beach although it is actually a river and according to them, the owner of the place is an ofw in Saipan for many years and as a remembrance of his work he named the place Saipan beach. The breathtaking view of the river and the mountains in the background is a great escape from the stressful life in manila.

Job well done Mark! Juicy grilled pork chop. (dinner prepared by boys )

Jim, a boy scout indeed laging handa! Brought his filter water system, making the water drinking water! With his favorite assistant, Albert.

Another special event happened on this day – the first induction of smb members! With United Guide Abelling Tribe officers.
