Bogo City Prepares for Sinulog 2014
Despite the devastation brought by super typhoon Yolanda, students from the City of Bogo division will join this year's Sinulog sa Kabataan sa Lalawigan parade on the 11th and maybe the Grand Parade itself on the 19th.
Cebu Daily News reported that 65 high school dancers, instrumentalists and propsmen have been practicing for the competition since December 15, 2013. They relied mainly on the P200,000 cash aid from the Bogo City government.

“Our recovery is ongoing. Many supported us. We just can’t turn our back on the Sinulog,” Ursal told Cebu Daily News in Cebuano.
Bonifacio Ursal, the MAPEH coordinator of the Bogo City Schools Division, said they were hesitant at first about joining the Sinulog this year because of budget and time constraints but later agreed to join to show their thanksgiving to the Sto. Nino for keeping them safe and alive.
Bogo's entry will show how Yolanda devastated the city and how Bogohanons survived.
