The first settlers in Tubigon settled along the shores of the river that flows through the community. Their exact origins are unknown but they are thought to be early Malays from southeast Asian countries, migrating to the Philippines in small bangkas. Seasonal overflowing of the river flooded the community and led the place to be called "Tubigan" (meaning "place having water" or "watery"), which later morphed into "Tubigon" (meaning "place bounding in water"). The first record of the town of Tubigon dates from the early part of the 17th century. Tubigon was badly affected by the 2013 Bohol earthquake, suffering 11 fatalities and damage to some 7,300 homes, as well as total destruction of its town hall and church. Transportation

HAPPY WORLD TEACHERS’ DAY!

Sa tanang magtutudlo sa Tubigon ug sa tibuok nasud, karong adlawa, among ipadayag ang among kinasingkasing nga pasalamat ug pagpasidungog kaninyo.

Dili sayon mahimong magtutudlo. Sa matag adlaw, dili lang mo nagtudlo og mga leksyon, nagtudlo mo og kinabuhi, naghatag og paglaum, ug naghulma sa mga damgo sa atong mga kabataan.

Salamat sa inyong walay kapoy nga pag-amuma, pailub, sakripisyo, ug gugma. Sa mga gabii nga mo-andam mo sa inyong mga leksyon, sa mga higayon nga inyong giatiman ang mga estudyanteng nanginahanglan og dugang nga pagsabot, ug sa matag higayon nga inyong gipadayon ang inyong katungdanan bisan kapoy na, SALAMAT KAAYO!

Daghang pangandoy sa atong kabataan ang natuman tungod kay adunay magtutudlo nga niingon, “Kaya nimo.”

Kamo ang mga bayani sa classroom, hilom nga nagserbisyo, apan dako kaayo og nahimo sa kinabuhi sa matag estudyante nga inyong natandog.

Sa ngalan sa Local Government Unit of Tubigon, daghang salamat sa inyong serbisyo, dedikasyon, ug gugma sa edukasyon.

Para sa inyong tanan, saludo mi ninyo. Happy World Teachers’ Day! 💙💛

Mabuhay ang atong mga magtutudlo! Padayon sa paghulma sa kaugmaon sa atong kabataan.

However, after further consultation, consideration of the different circumstances, and coordination with the various stakeholders involved, the Municipal Government has decided that it is best to rescind the earlier issuance and allow the observance of Teachers’ Day to proceed in accordance with the applicable policies and arrangements of the education sector.

This is a decision made with care, responsibility, and respect for everyone involved, our teachers, school personnel, learners, parents, school administrators, and education partners.

TEAM TUBIGON NEEDS YOUR SUPPORT! 🫵

Representing the Municipality of Tubigon, Team Tubigon is proud to be currently ranked #1 in Pool A of the Governor’s Cup Volleyball Developmental League! 🙌

Our journey continues as we face Team Inabanga, Team Corella, and Team Guindulman on October 3 & 4. We are giving everything we have to represent Tubigon with pride, but behind every game is a team of players who also need support.

At this point, we are facing financial difficulties, especially with our expenses for food, game-day needs, and other necessities. As much as we want to focus solely on preparing and performing, the financial burden has become increasingly difficult for our team to handle on our own.

We are humbly reaching out to anyone who is willing to extend financial support or sponsorship to Team Tubigon. 🙏 Any amount, big or small, would mean so much to us and would directly help our players as we continue this journey. Your support is not just financial — it is an encouragement for us to keep fighting and proudly carry the name of TUBIGON on the court. 🏐

Let’s keep the Tubigon spirit alive!�Daghang salamat sa tanan nga mosuporta sa Team Tubigon!

For donations and sponsorships, please send Ralph Darren Badilla a message or send directly to his GCash #09667567090. Thank you!

The Provincial Environment and Natural Resources Office (PENRO) spearheaded a Training and Skills Development Workshop on Waste-to-Value-Adding Products on September 24–25, 2026, as part of the Panglao Island Restoration and Rehabilitation Program.

The two-day activity brought together representatives from the Municipal Government of Panglao and the Municipal Government of Dauis, in coordination with the Municipality of Tubigon, to strengthen local government capacity in converting waste materials into useful and sustainable products.

A key component of the workshop was the hands-on training on the fabrication of eco-hollow blocks, an initiative that demonstrates how recovered waste materials can be transformed into value-adding products while supporting local waste diversion and environmental protection efforts.

The activity also provided participating local government units with an opportunity to learn from Tubigon’s experience in developing and implementing its eco-hollow block initiative, with the goal of encouraging the adoption and replication of practical waste-to-value solutions in other communities.

Municipal Mayor Hon. Marlon R. Amila of Tubigon joined the activity in support of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources’ (DENR) continuing efforts to strengthen sustainable waste management and promote innovative approaches to resource recovery.
