Gawad Kalinga Bayanihan Run Run with Gawad Kalinga and help Rebuild the nation!
Calling on all who love the Philippines to run as heroes for the poor by joining the country’s largest marathon this year taking place on September 26, 2010 in Camarines Sur. The International Camsur Marathon has alloted a special category called the GK Bayanihan Run, where participants will race for a cause, sharing of their sweat and time to help build the nation by raising funds to build GK communities.
DEADLINE OF REGISTRATION ON SEPTEMBER 10
How you can race to rebuild the nation?
1.) By registering with Gawad Kalinga at the GK Bayani rate of Php 1,500 per person or the GK Bayanihan rate of Php 15,000 per team of 10 people, you help jump start the work of transformation in the lives of the poor by raising funds to build GK communities for them.
2.) As your own personal contribution, the GK Bayani/Bayanihan rate is your humble financial gift to the poor who cannot run the race of life because of poverty. Together with your team and the rest of the teams participating in the GK Bayanihan Run, you will be able to take part in rebuilding the nation, one poor community at a time.
3.) You may also choose to find a sponsor who will pledge the GK Bayanihan amount in your name/group so you can join the many runners who will race for the poor and for the country. In this way, you are able to pass on the heroism and the bayanihan spirit to even more people!
4.) If you are unable to run but wish to take part, you may do so by pledging the GK Bayani rate of Php 1,500 for one runner or the GK Bayanihan rate of Php 15,000 for 10 runners.Note: The GK Bayani/Bayanihan rates include the regular CamSur marathon registration, GK Bayanihan Run singlet, and the race pack including race bib number(s) and electronic timing chip.
Join us in this first ever race of heroes who commit to not leaving the poor behind!
See you in CamSur!

Intended to balance the cable park's extreme sports forte, Lago del Rey is a facility expected to be fit for royalty as its name infers will however offer very affordable wholesome family watersports entertainment including giant water slides, aqua wall climbing, water polo, water volleyball, kayaking, aqua obstacle course, paddle surfing, boat-towed wakeboarding and skiing, dragonboating and, of course, pure and simple swimming. The lake will also have a Kids's Activity Center that will provide suitable water-oriented sports and entertainment for children.

The first thing that you?ll notice at CWC is the presence of foreigners, which always makes me wonder, how come they know about these places before we (Pinoys) do? Once you get past the slew of Germans, Brits, Australians, and Japanese, you realize (happily so) that there are also a lot of Bikolanos milling about the place and enjoying the facilities on the six hectare complex.
CABLE SKIING Cable skiing is the main event at CWC. As its name implies, the skier is pulled by an overhead cable, and she has the option of being on a wakeboard, waterski, or kneeboard while hooked-up to the cable on the move. World champion wakeboarders and beginners (who usually start-off on the kneeboard before getting up on both feet) alike fall in line to have a go. The great part about it is the park?s jovial and non-competitive atmosphere, an appeal that?s likely been imparted by the equally laidback Luis Raymund (aka ?L-Ray,? aka ?Gov?;) Villafuerte Jr., CWC?s head honcho and provincial Governor of Camarines Sur, one who?s hell-bent on promoting tourism to his province, which he feels is at par and sometimes even surpasses other better-known destinations within our Philippine archipelago.
CWC is the brainchild of Gov. L-Ray (himself a wakeboarder, and a darn good one, so we?ve heard), and if you talk to any wakeboarder on the premises, they have nothing but praise for the young politician, who has created a world-class facility that is both affordable, accessible, and more important, complies with safety standards to ensure that novices and experts alike enjoy their time at the park.
OTHER FACILITIES If the cable park isn?t your thing and you just want to lazily spend your days tanning, you can do just that as CWC also has a pool, clubhouse, restaurant, pro shop (where you can get wakeboards, life vests, helmets, board shorts, and crocs, to name a few items), and an area for beach volleyball.
BMX riders can delight in the sand dunes that were built with their extreme needs in mind; coupled with the skate park and the already thriving cable park, CWC is set to be known in the world-stage as an Extreme sports haven.
FUTURE PLANS ?We want this place to be the Extreme Sports Disneyland of the world!? says Ruben Buchanan, one of the resident managers at CWC. ?Gov (L-Ray) also has plans to build a 9-hole golf course, ATV park, a foam pit (where riders can try out their tricks and still have a soft landing), and a boat lake,? he confirmed.
WHERE TO STAY You have a choice of lodging at CWC. There?s the Mansion Suites, a hotel that?s popular with the wakeboarders and foreigners (P2,200-4,000 for 2-4 pax/room depending on size and room choice). If you don?t want to stay within the standard hotel then the cabanas may be more your thing (P2,800/night, good for 2 people); or perhaps the unconventional containers or 'trailers', where you can pick from one that houses two people, or a family-sized one with two bedrooms and a kitchenette that can accommodate four to five people (rates start at P2,800/night).
What?s yet to open are the Balinese Villas (P5,000/villa, good for 2 people), which is about a ten minute walk from the cable park, but is worth the mild exercise. When the villas are finished and are open to the public, you can look forward to an on-site spa, luxe pool, and of course, your own private home away from home. The great part about it is that all of the room rates come with breakfast, and you can avail of the cable park and the CWC facilities for free throughout the day.
