SM CITY CONSOLACION HOSTS THE FIRST TANGKONG FESTIVAL



Barangay Lamac Sk Council in Consolacion held its first Tangkong Festival last August 12 at the open grounds of SM City Consolacion.


LAMAC, the Barangay name is derived from the word “Lamakan”which translates to “Swamp” which was mostly present around the community even before 1925. These swamps were abundantwith various species of plants and animals, especially Tangkong.


Barangay Lamac was and is still known for producing Tangkong crops for markets across Metro Cebu. The abundance ofTangkong has helped a lot of families as well as the community to thrive successfully- providing families a commodity, helping students to finish education.


Contingents joined the street dancing that started at the Lamac barangay court, passing Purok 3 to Purok 2, all the way to the stage area in SM City Consolacion.


Barangay Lamac also presented the first ever Tangkong Festival Queens - Nicole Saycon, Shem Macario, Phoebe Mag-asin, Juliet Sabay, and Grazel Faith Pitogo.
