Nov 30 || Nature in Motion: Wetland Clean-Up, Mangrove Planting, and Wellness Activity
The 525th Air Police Squadron-Boracay under the 52nd Air Force Group Reserve, in collaboration with Tactical Operations Group 6, spearheaded a Wetland Clean-Up, Mangrove Planting, and Wellness Activity at Wetland #6, Manoc-Manoc, Boracay Island.
This initiative aimed to preserve and sustain the rehabilitation of Boracay’s natural environment, while creating opportunities to connect and strengthen our relationship with the local community, stakeholders, organizations, government agencies, and both regular and reserve uniformed personnel. Participants came together to clean the wetland, plant 500 mangrove propagules to help protect the coastline, and join simple on-site games that made the morning both meaningful and fun. Activities like this support a healthier, more sustainable future for the next generation, while building a stronger sense of community and shared responsibility for the environment.
We would like to give thanks to Mayor Frolibar Bautista for the support, and to all the participants who joined us and contributed their time and effort, including the Philippine Army – Task Group Boracay, Philippine Army Reserve, PNP Malay, PNP Maritime Group – Aklan, Marin Reserve (812nd Marine Company Reserve), PCG – Coast Guard Station Aklan, Navy Reserve, Boracay Photographer Association, Inc., MALTOA, BFP Boracay, Red Cross Boracay, URECO, Regional Civil Security Unit 6 (RCSU6), Caticlan and Cagban Jetty Port and Brgy Manoc-manoc.
