After conducting these, the students of Roosevelt College Rodriguez went back home with the help of the vehicles, again, sponsored by the Rotary Club of Rodriguez. While on their way down the mountains, the truck can no longer support the weight of the people on it while it was going uphill. The Scouts and the members of the Rotary Club of Rodriguez, were forced to hop off. Despite hiking for 2 hours 16 rivers crossed and an occasional pouring of rain, all of them were still smiling, enjoying the hike. When they have reached Mascap National High School - Main, a truck was waiting for them all, and they finally have reached home, leaving the students back at Mascap National High School – Puray Annex with grins on their faces.
