According to a statement released on Saturday by Kadayawan Executive Committee (Execom) chair Al Ryan Alejandre, the first place in the school-based and open categories will each receive PHP1 million, while the second place will receive PHP500,000, third place (PHP400,000), fourth place (PHP300,000), fifth place (PHP200,000), and the consolation prizes are PHP20,000.
Because of the pandemic in 2020, the city will now hold the Kadayawan Festival in person.
Alejandre said the “Indak-Indak sa Kadayawan” participants are growing as 17 contingents have already signified – seven from the Davao-Based Category and 10 from the open category.
“Actually July 29 is the deadline for the submission of entries for the Indak-indak, but I am appealing to the organizer if they can extend the deadline because there are still many who want to join,” Alejandre said, adding that it might be extended to the first week of August.
Meanwhile, Alejandre said all participants must present a health declaration form.
“A negative RT-PCR test result or vaccination card is not (necessarily) required of the participants,” he added.
He said once they manifest symptoms [Covid-19] in their places of origin, they cannot come to Davao.
“The Execom required the City Health Office (CHO) to deploy its staff in the billeting areas. Each billeting area will have an isolation room that will be prepared in case some contestants will manifest symptoms,” Alejandre added.
He said they are in close partnership with CHO to come up with guidelines in case a situation arises.
