      Bohol Island Tour Guides Association of the Philippines, Inc. (BITGAP) will grill Friday senior high school students in the first district during the annual tourism quiz which will tackle Bohol’s tourism sights, standards, arts and culture.

      Organized by BITGAP, an organization of Department of Tourism-accredited tour guides in the province, the Annual Provincial Tourism Quiz seeks to generate awareness and strengthen knowledge and appreciation of Bohol’s pride and eco-tourism assets among young Boholanos.

      Participants from various high schools in first district towns, that excludes Tagbilaran City, will converge at the New Calape Cultural Center and Sports Complex on Friday, June 27, at 1 p.m. for the first leg of the competition.

      The academic feat is open to the public.

      Each team is composed of two senior high school students.

      BITGAP believes that graduating students even in the towns should have a grasp on and exposure to the tourism industry in Bohol.

      The quiz will consist of two rounds- -the elimination and finals.

      The three teams with the highest scores in the elimination round will move on to the final round, while the team with highest score at the end of the final round (either municipal or city level) will be declared the champion.

      Fabulous prizes await the lucky winners in the elimination and the championship round.

      Two overall champion teams will be declared- -one at the district level and one at the city level.

      “We are having this and the succeeding year’s competition at the district level in order to give high school students from the various towns greater opportunity to participate in the contest,” according to BITGAP president Danny Nazareno.

      In the past eight years, the quiz was conducted only during the tourism month in September when high school students from the municipalities all over the province usually come to Tagbilaran City for the competition.
