Steem Summit's Travel Post Submission Winners

Greetings from Steem Summit organizers!

Steem Summit is just 2 days ahead and this is the last announcement of winners for the exhibit. This announcement should have been posted last week, but there are unprecedented circumstances that happened. As the Exhibit Manager, I would like to personally apologize for the delay and thank everyone for understanding.

The organizers would like to thank everyone who submitted their entries. You guys were awesome! The organizers would also like to thank Hive account@donkeypong for his donation in all of the prizes for Steem Summit submissions. Also, the hard work of the panelists who scored and rank the entries based on the criteria should be commended. Thank you panelists! Your names will be revealed on the summit proper.

The scores are tabulated using Google Sheet, so it is readily available for anyone who wishes to contest the winners. It is also available for perusal in the spirit of transparency; a value that the organizers upheld with highest regard. A gentle reminder, the panelists are under no obligation to explain their reason why the winners are chosen to be that way. Besides, the score of each entry is the average of the three total scores given by the panelists. We hope that everyone is on board with this.

Here are the winners of Steem Summit's Travel Post Submissions to be showcased in the exhibit:

CHAMPION: Hive account@steemspotsScore: 92.67%

Negros Occidental is a Must-Visit!

Traveling nowadays is very common, company workers do travel to bond and build rapport with colleagues, families go out to treat parents and children alike, friends traverse new places to catch up and unwind and a lot more. For us, it has been a gateway to education, a help to the promotion of the country's attractions, an aid to help tourism and most importantly, to learn more about each other.

Exhibit Manager's Note: Hive account@steemspots highly recommended travelling to Negros Occidental, as it was described as an underrated destination for travellers.

FIRST RUNNER UP: Hive account@nikkabombScore: 87.33%

Closure of Boracay? Time to explore Bohol for as low as 40USD (Php2000)!

And if I'm gonna recommend Bohol specifically Anda to my friends, it's mainly because of the people of Anda. The Andahanons truly touched my heart and that is what will make me always come back to this place like home!

Exhibit Manager's Note: Hive account@nikkabomb gave an overall tour to the island of Bohol. Almost all of the scenic spots were covered. It's a perfect guide for everyone who wishes to explore the whole island.

SECOND RUNNER UP: Hive account@janicemarsScore: 85.33%

Bantayan Weekend Escape

An escape is needed from time to time to keep my sanity. This time, we found it in the shores of one of the World's loveliest Islands: Bantayan.

Exhibit Manager's Note: Hive account@janicemars provided an idea on how to have a weekend escapade in the island of Bantayan. With its stunning beaches and magnificent caves, Bantayan is one of the best islands in Cebu for tourists and travellers.

Congratulations to the winners!

The rewards were already sent to their respective accounts. Please refer to the screenshot below.

Special Note: We would like to thank Hive account@donkeypong for sending 60 SBD for the food and miscellaneous expenses. His generosity has made a huge impact not just to us, but also to the Cebu community as a whole.

See you all on April 22, 2018 at ASPACE CEBU, Crossroads, Cebu City, Philippines!
