Celebrity families play to bond

MANILA, Philippines - All it takes is engaging in fun games — and sharing good food together — to bring out the closeness in Filipino families. This was experienced first-hand by some showbiz families who participated in the first Lucky Me! Pamilyaro Celebrity Edition, held at the Fontana Leisure Park in Clark, Pampanga.

During the two-day event, the celebrity families gamely showed off their physical and mental skills to enjoy fun games, which gave them a chance to bond and rediscover friendships with other celebrity families.

Among the clans who joined the event were Joey Marquez and kids Jaye, Jazella, Jacob, Johann, Joshua, Vinny, JB, Jesm and Paolo; Gary Estrada and wife Bernadette Allyson with kids Gianna, Gabbi and Icee; Lotlot de Leon with her three daughters Janine, Jessica and Maxine; and Boy Asistio and wife Nadia Montenegro with kids Yssa, Ynna, Ykka, Xander, Ysha, Sophia and Sam.

Also enjoying fun bonding time were Domini Primero and wife Joanne Quintas with kids Rafael, Mulawin and Mayumi; Tania Montenegro and kids Mara, Nico and Mika; and Mymy Davao with her daughter Rafi and her two nephews.

To make the games even more exciting, Monde Nissin executives and their families also joined the challenge. Present were Louie Medina and wife Anne with kids LA and Chow; Chester Cajucom-Uy and wife Rizza with kids Kyle and Megan; and Jacob Dy and wife Shellane with kids Josh and Marco.

The event was opened by Rufino Tiam-Lee, VP for Consumer Division of Monde Nissin Corp., the makers of Lucky Me!. He shared that Lucky Me! has always been committed in building strong family ties. Pamilyaro is part of Lucky Me’s vision that through play, parents can know their children better.

After the exciting games, declared as grand winners were the families of Asistio and Monde Nissin’s Louie Medina.

Besides bonding over fun games, the celebrity families also got to share memorable moments together over a delightful dinner feast. The kids also enjoyed the performance by skilled acrobats as well as the enthralling fireworks display.
