adivay festival

Adivay is a reference name of a festive celebration in the province of Benguet in the Philippines. it is celebrated annually in the month of November in La Trinidad, the capital town.   The main celebration is highlighted by the simultaneous butchering of pigs to be prepared for lunch by the different municipalities every 23rd of November at a public space in Wangal, La Trinidad. As long as the prepared foods are available, guests and expectators are supposedly welcome to partake. Unfortunately, during recent celebrations, food were not enough. In fact, my housemates, who are locals, who had been attempting to join the feast for 3 years would always come home starving. It may be best for organizers to do a rethinking so that the feast becomes meaningful. Why not identify a specific target less fortunate community to feed. Afterall, it is impossible to cater to everyone.
