29 August 2019, Calgary – The Philippine
Consulate General (PCG) in Calgary intensified its promotion of the Winter
Escapade 7 travel tour to the Philippines by launching it in Edmonton on 25 August and in Calgary on 28 August 2019,
respectively.
On both launchings, Consul General
Zaldy Patron explained the details of Winter Escapade 7. He
highlighted that the annual tour targets mainstream Filipino-Canadians and Canadians
to travel to the Philippines and discover the new attractions and destinations
in the country. He also shared the promotion of Philippine Airlines for Winter
Escapade travellers.
The launching in
Edmonton was held at the Coronation Park Picnic Site during the picnic activity
of the Philippine Business Society of Alberta (PBSA) and was attended by about
50 individuals. It coincided with the
PCG’s consular outreach mission in Edmonton on 24-26 August.
On the other
hand, about 40 community leaders and guests attended the launching in Calgary which
was held in Max’s Restaurant.
The two separate
launchings in the two biggest cities in Alberta were part of the PCG’s campaign
to encourage the members of the Filipino-Canadian community and their network
of friends to sign up for the tour in the weeks leading up to the registration
deadline on 15 September 2019.
The Winter Escapade 7 will take place on
15-22 January 2020 and will bring the participants to the different tourist
destinations in Manila, Bataan, Pampanga, and Boracay. The tour promises a VIP
experience for the participants as they will be billeted in the finest hotels
in the Philippines, treated to savory Filipino dishes, and introduced to the
Filipino hospitality. They will likewise enjoy the beautiful beaches,
interesting museums, and fascinating heritage sites in the Philippines.
