I am really not sure how many kids there are, there may not be that many.

I really don't know, and just grabbed that number off the top of my head. Might only be 300 kids..

I will ask around, and will also talk to the Barangay Captain as soon as I see him.

I'm guessing around $2, or maybe up to $3 tops each, and that would leave extra for candy for them also.

I do know of a wholesale place down in Cebu City, and I could travel there next year to make things stretch even farther.



I gave out a lot of candy myself this year, and there was also a German and his wife came here and gave out candy at the plaza (basketball court) this year.

They even brought along a rubber stamp, with ink pad, and stamped each kid as they collected their candy so they couldn't go through the line twice..

If we put this together for next year I will get lots of photos for everyone, and maybe even have them make up a sign thanking the Corvette Barn.
