Contingency Plans:

Plan A - If the site is no longer available at 4:30 am, we are going to move to an alternate site available. Since signs and arrows giving directions towards our area are not allowed other than right on our spot, look for the Silliman University banner.

Plan B - Bring your umbrellas, tables and chairs to use in case there is no gazebo available.
