Monthly walk: Landmarks worth a 2nd look!

The 1st walk for 2017…..

This is an EC activity; feel free to bring your adult friends who are over 45!

Date: Saturday, 11 March 2017

Time: 4.30 pm SHARP!

Meeting Point: Toa Payoh MRT (NS 19), Exit A. Bread Talk is on the left as you come up the escalator.

Duration: Approx. 2.5 hrs

ECs : Azhari Cuttilan and ChristinA Chan

The festive seasons have ended… good time to stretch and walk off the flabs :D

Due to the recent incident of big trees being uprooted, our walk routes are limited.
In view of the safety for all participants during this rainy season, we have changed this walking route to a pleasant yet interesting trail!

For greenery, we will pass through 2 small parks; will see the only Buddhist temple outside Myanmar built in the traditional Burmese architectural style; a chic cafe; a villa built in late 1800s was restored and open to the public in 2001; Singapore’s first civil airport terminal built in 1937 but ceased operation in 1955 and used by various groups; other interesting landmarks like the longest HDB block.

There’s two end points, it depends on time, weather and participants’ energy level:
1) Kallang MRT or
2) Sports Hub

Bring water bottles, caps, umbrellas and cameras. Do wear comfortable walking shoes.

Look forward to your early registration! :D :D

  1. Hi Christina and others,

    Steven is back. Please register me for this interesting walk. And I appreciate very much the organisers who have been working hard all these years to ensure that our members enjoy their monthly walks. V. Good. Keep it up ! Miss all of you and looking forward to see you soon next Sat.

    1. Hi Christina or Terence I am a member of SHC . Why is it still under approval ? Please Register me for this interesting walk this coming Sat 11/3/17 please . Thanks.

      1. It is raining heavily in Clementi but I will definitely join in this SHC walk at 4.30pm. I missed all the members for a long time. Time to meet up with them.

      2. It was so GOOD to meet the SHC Walk members after a long abscence.
        The route was also well chosen and we manage to see a Burmese temple and a Wheeler’s Yard an old industrial ” warehouse” and later the 3 of us Azahari, Charles and continue our walk to the Stadium Hub.Thanks to the EO and committee members for organising this interesting walk. I am looking forward to our next Walk in April.

    Thanks for your kind support. :D
    Look forward to see all of you.

    1. Oic. Thanks for your reply and explanation. Appreciated and looking forward to meet you again.

      FYI Hi Terence I thought of organising 1 day outing for SHC members to JB. What do you think ? However I limit to 10 pax if l am the only organiser. However if there is another volunteer organiser to help me then it will be 20pax. Each of us will responsible for 10pax.
      Can you please what’s app me so that I can send you the draft for approval. I am still quite new to what’s app features.
      Another SHC event will be a picnic gathering at West Coast Park . Most if not all have been picnicking at East Coast Park but not West Coast Park with many facilities too. How about a change to a different environment ?
      For both events I had recce the place and it’s surroundings.
      It is high time I need to contribute more to SHC events to have a sense of belonging to the club.
      I will also attach some photos to give you a better picture of what I had planned in the interest of our members at heart.
      Have a good day Terence ,

  6. Seems like kindred spirit in the air when everybody was very happy to see each other- we went MIA for such a long time. A very nice warm fellowship of old friends. Heaven was very kind to us – the heavy downpour stopped just in time when the walk started. Our grateful thanks to Chris for doing the detailed write up and got everybody tempted to join, and Azhari, who took the trouble to recce such a long route that must have taken a lot of his time. Gratias gratias!

  7. A friend pointed out to me that we have a good turnout of guys!

    I started counting… I believe this was an eventful ratio of 12:12. Hooray! :D :D

    Ladies & Guys… thanks for show up,,, keep coming to our walks!

    Have a great weekend!
    ChristinA and the Walk Team
