Joseph Flores Memorial Park (Ypao Beach) in Tumon. <\/p>\n<p>GVB welcomed The John Dank Show, a progressive rock reggae band that culminated their four-week U.S. cities tour with their performance at the Guam Summer Beach Fest, and The Dolls, an all-female Pop\/Hip Hop band that wrote the original Guam Summer Beach Fest song Hot, Hot, Hot (For You) as the program\u2019s newest members. <\/p>\n<p>The H\u00e5fa Adai Pledge program is the cornerstone of the Guam Visitors Bureau\u2019s local community branding campaign. In its seventh year, the H\u00e5fa Adai Pledge program has grown steadily in the number of participants as well as the commitment of individual pledges. In March of 2016, GVB reached a significant milestone, welcoming its 600th pledge, representing more than 32,500 individuals from private businesses, government agencies, non-profits and other organizations that have joined the H\u00e5fa Adai Pledge program. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guam Visitors Bureau hosted a special H\u00e5fa Adai Pledge ceremony on the beach to recognize&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":28,"featured_media":232848,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[12629,7192,7969,12630],"class_list":["post-232825","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-local-news","tag-adai-pledge","tag-guam-visitors-bureau","tag-gvb","tag-susana-wusstig"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/232825","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/28"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=232825"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/232825\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/232848"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=232825"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=232825"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=232825"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
