Lucena City, Philippines

On the first day, we did not have a bat, so the community being resourceful was able to innovate using local bamboo to create a bat.

The final day of Baseball Miracles activities involved an invitation by the West 1 Elementary school for a Baseball Miracles team member to be an honorary guest at their Sports Opening and Closing Ceremony.  Several schools participated in a display honoring the top athletes from each school.  Local dignitaries and Department of Education administrative staff were on hand to give out trophies to the school's elite athletes.  A partnership with the Lucena City Education Division is in the works.  Below is a video featuring students performing national sport and martial arts Arnis demonstration as part of the award ceremony.
