Bankers from different towns of Ilocos Norte, Ilocos Sur, Abra, La Union, Benguet, and Pangasinan, also extended their heartfelt Christmas greetings. A highlight of the evening was the eagerly anticipated raffle draw, where lucky bankers had the opportunity to win an array of prizes, including Rang-ay merchandise, noche buena packages and home appliances.
