EFREN PEÑAFLORIDA IS AN
EKSTRAORDINAYONG KABABAYAN!
Mr. Efren Peñaflorida with the children of The Dynamic Team
Company
after their storytelling at Enchanted Kingdom’s Bandstand.
HEROES ARE DEFINED in so many ways and seen in many forms. We have soldiers who fight for our country’s peace, doctors and nurses who check on our health and save lives, and teachers who share their knowledge and wisdom to young minds and inspire them to become better people of our nation.
Enchanted Kingdom VP for Sales, Marketing and Entertainment
Mrs Cynthia R. Mamon
reads the citation of EKstraordinary Kababayan plaque
before awarding it to Mr Peñaflorida.
Joining Mrs. Mamon are EK’s
President, Mr Marion Mamon, Guest Relations Head,
Ms Debbie Faune, and
EK’s mascot Eldar the Wizard and Princess.
Last year, the term hero became more significant to Filipinos when our very own Efren Peñaflorida was awarded as the CNN Hero of the Year for 2009. The whole world saluted his compassion and the whole country respected his dedication to serve. That is why Enchanted Kingdom considered him as an EKstraordinary Kababayan!
Just recently, Enchanted Kingdom (EK) presented its first-ever EKstraordinary Kababayan award to showcase not only their outstanding talents but also exhibit their positive Filipino values that should be emulated worldwide.
After acknowledging his Award, Mr Peñaflorida also gave a token to Enchanted Kingdom’s President Mr Mario Mamon. It’s a t-shirt where the logo of his organization, the Dynamic
Team Company, is printed together with his
autograph.
The awarding ceremony at EK’s Bandstand Area started with a comprehensive audio-visual presentation showing a brief background of Mr.Peñaflorida’s award-winning work with street children. EK’s President Mr. Mario Mamon then introduced the honoree to the guests who were present at the time. In his introduction, Mr. Mamon said “Mr. Penaflorida is not the typical stereotype hero who saves the world through his special powers but he is someone who does little but noble things to improve the lot of young people around him, that they may face a brighter future through some form of education.”
Just recently, Enchanted Kingdom (EK) presented its first-ever EKstraordinary Kababayan award to showcase not only their outstanding talents but also exhibit their positive Filipino values that should be emulated worldwide.
Mr. Peñaflorida gladly received the award presented to him by Mr. Mamon, EK’s VP for SMILE, Dr. Cynthia R. Mamon and Head of Guest Relations, Ms. Debbie Faune. Mr. Peñaflorida, with all gratitude said “This is a very special award for me because I got it from an establishment whose values also include bringing out change to the youth by espousing positive Filipino values and giving “enchanting experiences”. Enchanted Kingdom is a theme park where you can dream and I believe dreaming is really essential especially to children. It keeps their hopes for a better future alive.”
Aside from being the EKstraordinary Kababayan awardee, Mr
Peñaflorida is also
the celebrity storyteller for Enchanted Kingdom.
The honoree also gave a token to Enchanted Kingdom, a t-shirt where the logo of his organization, the Dynamic Teen Company, is printed together with his autograph. The said token was placed in a commemorative case that will later be available for viewing at EK’s upcoming museum together with other mementoes.
Dr. Cynthia R. Mamon also expressed her appreciation for Efren’s visit and comments. According to her “If Mr. Peñaflorida is honored, we too, the management and staff of Enchanted Kingdom, are more honored to have him here. What we really like about him is that amidst all his recognition around the world, his feet stays on the ground and his service to our countrymen is still pure and remain uninfluenced by politics and the like.”
After the awarding ceremony, Mr. Peñaflorida gathered the kids of the Dynamic Teen Company at the bandstand to listen to his story of The Good Samaritan. According to him, he practiced narrating the story three times because of his excitement.
The kids of Dynamic Teen Company and Mr.Peñaflorida enjoyed the rides and attractions at the Park late afternoon most especially the Dodgem bumper cars which happens to be the personal favorite of our inaugural EKstraordinary Kababayan awardee.
Come to Enchanted Kingdom where the magic stays with you! From now up to March 28, we are open from Thursdays to Fridays from 12NN to 7PM. and Saturdays to Sundays from 11AM to 9PM with Fireworks Display at 8PM.
