Naga River Day
The first Naga River Day, dubbed Aldaw kan Salog nin Buhay (Day of the River of Life), was celebrated on March 8, 2014, in Naga. The event was established through Mayoral Proclamation No. 2014-002 which declares every second Saturday of March as Naga River Day. Its aim is to highlight the importance of the Naga River, particularly its role in the history and culture of the city. It also seeks to encourage Naga citizens to take responsibility for the river's cleanliness.[1][2]
