Murso Festival *
This year’s MURSO Festival had for its theme, "Unifying Organizations through the Promotion
of Values, Service and Friendship".
Thirty-seven duly recognized organizations joined the two-day festivity held last February 24-25, 2007.
The affair started with a city parade where the students wore their printed shirts representing
their respective organizations. It was formally opened by the EVP and VPAA, Mrs. Sonia S.
Feliciano with Gov. Loreto Leo S. Ocampos as the honored guest. The Opening Program was

of the activity was the MURSOyawan in the evening of February 25 where everyone enjoyed the
non-stop sounds of the disco beat.
