Sta Maria Ilocos Sur - Finally, last September 17, 2011, the Lingkod Alay sa Kalikasang Ating Dakila (LAKAD) Part 3 was successfully conducted after it was reschedule because of typhoon Mina last August. The tree planting activity was held at the UNESCO heritage site of the Parish church of Sta. Maria de Assunta, of said municipality.
This time, only 5 alumni members of Ilocos Students as Vanguards of the Environment (ISAVE) have joined the said activity. They were Christopher Valmoja, Llamier Iloreta, Ivy Campos, Ryan Paet and Regimar Balcobero.
Campos said during an encounter, that despite of their number, the tree planting activity still turned out to be successful wherein they managed to plant 100 mahogany seedlings. “… We’re only five, but, despite that we were not disappointed and still continue the activity since we were already in the site. We understand our fellow ISAVEs who were not able to come because of some priorities…”
The first two part of the leg was both held in Salcedo, Ilocos Sur last June of the same year. The ISAVE aimed to plant more trees in order to protect and preserve Mother Nature.
