Engkwentro Holinay

I remember playing this stuff some three decades ago. Marble playing was one of the many kid recreations especially in the elementary days. Last week I discovered  from these neighbor kids that "holinay" has some new innovations in as far as the mechanics are concerned. They already have now a multiple-hole category, among others. Despite some changes, this game has been part of my childhood days when we still reside in Landing. I always wished that someday, somehow I could be like these kids once in a while as it ill always be a worthy respite of the complicated adult life.

Traditional Match

This photo was taken during the Sinub-badan Festival in Sta. Cruz. Dubbed as the celebration of oneness participated by all tribes of Sta. Cruz, this festival was conducted on September 5-6, 2014. One of the events was the Traditional Fire-Making contest as a culture that had been practiced by the Bagobo-Tagabawa tribe through the years.
