Enchanted Kingdom, the country’s first and only world-class theme park celebrated its 15th Anniversary last year. A number of activities were held to commemorate its fifteen wonderful years of bringing fun and excitement not only to kids but also to people of all ages.
A month-long celebration was held during its anniversary month of October, including the launch of its newest ride, the 150 feet EKstreme Tower Ride and The Annual Search for EK’s Little Prince & Princess. Also on the same month, EK gathered the best of the local and international fireworks makers and competitors for the first ever Enchanted Kingdom Asian Sky Wizardry Fireworks Competition.
Last December, a gift-giving event dubbed as EK’s Make an Enchanting Wish Come True was held for the victims of Ondoy. Kids were treated to a whole day of fun – games, snacks gift-giving and storytelling session led by EK’s VP for Sales & Marketing herself, Cynthia R. Mamon.
And just when we thought the party was over, EK celebrated the arrival of the New Year by bringing the International YouTube sensation and Hollywood star CHARICE in a concert entitled “Enchanting New Year’s Cheers with Charice”.
“As Enchanted Kingdom approaches another milestone in its corporate existence – a decade and a half of magic – we are poised to continue to break records. We shall continue to strive to exceed our guests’ expectations, not only through new, innovative and exciting rides and attractions and blockbuster entertainment, but also through superlative guest service that surely will result in positive and lifetime magical experiences,” explains Cesar Mario O. Mamon, EK’s Chairman and President.

Adrenaline junkies, Enchanted Kingdom’s latest thrill ride is finally open in public as part of its 15th anniversary.
The EKstreme Tower Ride is a Philippine’s first and another world-class ride attraction. The thrill of accelerating towards ground level from 150 feet after gently being raised to that level will surely take your breath away as EKstreme plummets from the sky.

The peak season when going on a vacation in Boracay would be in the summer which is sometime between March to June. However, those periods are also the peak season which makes it the most expensive time to go there. The same is true during November and December where a lot of tourists and foreigners spend the holidays on the island resort.
Ok guys, here are the winners of the two cases of Real Leaf Green Tea. Thank you to all who participated and shared our promo on their Facebook and Twitter.
If you’re wondering how I chose the winners, I listed all the names that qualified on an Excel sheet so they can be numbered. Don’t worry, I made sure not to double any names nor include those comments just asking for hints on the Word Hunt. I then enlisted the help of Random.org to choose our winners and here they are:
During our trip to Cebu, we spent a day in the city. There aren’t a lot of tourist spots to visit in the city so the next best thing is to try the country’s only sky attraction, the Skywalk Extreme and the Edge Coaster at the Crown Regency Hotel & Towers.
