    With the initiative of former City Councilor lawyer Perlita Cahn-Rondes, the local government institutionalized the Kababaihan festival of Baguio and the Search for Outstanding Women Leaders in 2006 where the same continue up to the present.
    This year’s awardees of the OWLs are Editha Semilla Puddoc, former regional director of the National Police Commission (NAPOLCOM) in the Cordillera, - public administration/community peace building advocate; Annie Marie B. Caguioa – education; Maria Monica C. Costales – human resource management and Marites C. Baucas – community women empowerment. By Dexter A. See
