The 1st Aklan Provincial Police Office (APPO) Summer Olympics kick off over the weekend gave local policemen a much needed break.
Senior Police Supt. Benigno "Bong" Durana Jr., acting Aklan police director said, "the tournament aims to strengthen the camaraderie and unity of policemen of Aklan." The competition would surely add more pomp and color to the summer.
Events lined-up are basketball, volleyball and badminton. The participants are the 18 police stations of Aklan, including the Boracay Special Tourist Protection Office (BSTPO) and the 601st Provincial Mobile Group (PMG).
The Aklan Police and Defense Press Corps (APDPC) and the religious sector were invited to join the tournament.
Provincial Administrator Diego M. Luces and Rev. Father Cezar Indelible graced the opening ceremonies.
The events began on April 12 and will end on May 26.
Majority of the events will be played at APPO grounds. (By boy ryan b. zabal) /MP
