This is a fun time for us and for the entire village. For three days, the village celebrated their &ldquo;Foundation Day&rdquo; by playing basketball and volleyball. The men enjoyed themselves with cockfights and playing cards. On the last day, the village killed four pigs and we all had a feast. <br \/><\/strong><br \/><strong>There were several games for the kids. <!--StartImportThumbnail--><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/files\/2008\/04\/1242_36729.jpg\" rel=\"thumbnail\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-104\" style=\"float:left; margin-right:5px; border: 0.5pt solid #BCC4C8;\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/files\/2008\/04\/1242_36729.jpg\" alt=\"Coconut Coin Game\" width=\"150\" title=\"Coconut Coin Game\" \/><\/a><!--EndImportThumbnail--> One game involved a very dirty coconut, hung by a rope, with several coins wedged into its husk. The kids who didn&rsquo;t mind getting dirty, took turns trying to get the coins out&#8230;using only their teeth. Many of them walked away with nothing but a dirty face. <\/p>\n<p>Our Agutaynen team likes to have fun, too. This year we purchased a piglet to give away. We gathered all the first graders around and whoever caught the piglet got to take it home. Of course, that&rsquo;s too easy. So we smothered the piglet in grease&#8230;maybe a little too much grease. After several tries, the girl in the picture finally captured her prize.&nbsp; This piglet only cost our team $20, but will be a huge blessing for this family.&nbsp; Someday, they can either use it for meat to feed their family, or they will be able to sell it for a greater price than we paid.<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What would you do for a free piglet?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-31","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"entry"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ethnos360.org\/stephen-jordan\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
