About
The GoFilCans Youth Group will be performing the Bulaklakan Dance. It is a Filipino folk dance that originated in the province of Bulacan. It's a joyful, floral-themed dance performed during religious festivities like Santa Cruz de Mayo, dedicated to the Virgin Mother Mary. The dance celebrates nature's beauty and embodies Filipino cultural heritage through its lively steps, floral costumes, and traditional music.
The GoFilCans Group of Officers will perform the Cariñosa Dance. It is a Philippine folk dance of Hispanic origin that translates to "the loving" or "the affectionate one". It is closely associated with the island of Panay and the Visayas region in general.
