Hi All.. 2012 is endng in awhile.. and 2013 is coming in awhile… The group at Bukit Gombak is thinking of booking the indoor stadium – all 6 courts, on a fixed day and time- (10am to 12nn on Thursday)- for SHC members in the coming year. Currently the badminton group books 3 hrs each time,but we also use the table-tennis for free. The group consists of members who comes from all over the island – (model SHC members: Frisna who comes from the EAST; James Tan from CENTRAL, Bira from IN-Between, Primsose from Bt Gombak, Amy/Yoon Chin from Clementi and so on.. so on,,,).We also welcome anyone who drop-in, on annual leave, on grandchildren leave.. If any SHC member is thinking of adopting 2013 Resolution – Stay Healthy, Don’t Worry, Be Happy – we would like to hear from you. The other courts can be used for line-dance, social dance, etc etc…(if badminton is not your game). We hope to make the Games Day on Thursdays a reality (also a consistent SHC meeting day). We need your support. Any Comments … inez

Hi Inez,
A very good initiative from you to have a special day for member to join in for a day of fun and fellowship. Being on a weekday, I reckon not many can come due to work.
Having it on a weekend may attract better participation. The setback will be booking a multi-purpose for our exclusive use, cost will be an underlying factor.
Let’s hope to hear from fellow members.

Thanks Dan.. WOW, I got ONE feedback at last..(after 2 posts)
I’ve sent an email to Singapore Sports Council to enquire about the possibility and costs of booking all 6 courts on a weekday from 10 am, where members may want to use for line dancing or whatever (someone suggests laying a mat and have picnic.. hmmm..)
Will update you when a reply is received.
The idea of a specific location, at a specific time – serves as a “location” where any member can identify and look for kakis for coffee, chit-chat etc – without having to pay rent for a under-utilised premise. You have tried weekend badminton, but i think the response was miserable – so, I’d better learn from your painful lesson..:(
I’m not sure if anyone would comment/suggest, since many members are still working and therefore not available on weekdays. Would changing location – to Toa Payoh, Hougang, Pasir Ris, whatever – and to weekends, be better??
I’m not sure..
