Ms. Iluminada Sereno of Brgy. Baoa West and Ms. Angela Mata of Brgy. Nagbacalan were personally visited and honored for reaching the remarkable milestone of 100 years. Their lives reflect strength, resilience, and a legacy of wisdom that continues to inspire our community.

Batac joins the world in celebrating Earth Hour today, March 28, 2026.

With the rising costs of electricity and the challenges we face with our environment, giving just one hour to our planet is more important than ever. This is not just about turning off lights; it is our way of showing that we care for our common home and our future.

From 8:30 PM to 9:30 PM tonight, we encourage every household and establishment to:
โœ… Switch off non-essential lights.
โœ… Unplug gadgets and appliances that aren't being used.
โœ… Reflect on how we can save energy every day.

Bassit a tignay, dakkel a tulong para iti aglawlaw tayo.

Smiles and gratitude filled the Imelda Cultural Center (ICC) as the National Commission of Senior Citizens (NCSC) conducted its pay-out activity for qualified beneficiaries from the City of Batac. The activity covered applicants for 2024 and 2025, highlighting senior citizens who reached milestone ages of 80, 85, 90, 95, and 100 years old, with each receiving a โ‚ฑ10,000 cash gift.

A total of one hundred forty-four (144) senior citizens received their cash gift during the activity held on March 4, 2026. The atmosphere was warm and joyful as beneficiaries expressed their appreciation, many leaving the venue with bright smiles and grateful hearts.

Beyond the cash gift, the activity also served as a meaningful gathering for the cityโ€™s elderly residents, recognizing their lifelong contributions and the important role they continue to hold in the community.
