SHC October monthly gathering at Hans Cafe, Thur Oct 14, 2010

This Post is reassigned to Henry Yip, original author Terence Seah

The next monthly gathering is scheduled for Thurs, Oct 14, 2010.  The venue is Hans Cafe at Great Eastern building, Upper Pickering Street, from 1700 to 2030 hrs.

There has been a suggestion to hold the event at Newton Circus Hawkers centre.  But, as I have not surveyed it yet, we may hold it another day.  If you know of a venue, large enough to accommodate our monthly gathering crowds, do share with us.  The venue should be near a MRT station, has no requirement for us to place fixed headcounts or menu orders, has its own chairs and tables, simple order from its F&B counter and noise tolerant.  Hopefully, we can accommodate the needs of retirees and still working SilverHairs.

The aim of the monthly gathering is to enable social networking among SHCians, for new and old SilverHairs to meet one another.  If you are new, please write an introduction or profile here on this club forum.  This way, others will get to know you.  And if you wish to meet other like-minded members, please indicate in the comments when you register.

I encourage you to register personally on this Post, if you plan to come.  This event is strictly for SHC members only.  Please do not bring friends or associates.  The EO will be announced soon.

If you wish to be the EO, please write to me.  I need some help with registration, hope you can volunteer.

Do register here.

Hi Everyone, I come to know SHC through the ST, I have been following SHC’s activities, at first out of curiosity and then admiration for what Terence, his fellow founders & all the volunteer EOs of this very good club has done & is continuing to do.

We all know that Singaporean’s ability to always find solutions to their challenges are lengendary!!. Now I’m a proud member of SHC and proud to be associated with such exceptional Singaporeans in the club. Exceptional Singaporeans who collectively, would take the bull by the horns, and face future challenges bravely & with resolve. Resolved that by their collective efforts, their future can definitely be happily brighter ones!!. SALUTE !!

Coming back closer to the surface of our earth, I like to smell the grass, like in our recent EXTreme Ramble!! ( EO Jeff & Joyce ) something I would not ever have done on my own!! Nooks & corners of this lovely island I never thought existed. Or what about that ‘Yum Seng’ all night long, interspeared with flexing dancing muscles at the Kovan( EO AhNee ). Having known Sue Chan since our French classes @ Alliance Francaise several years ago, I joined her small group ‘hanging-out in Phnom Penh for 4 days together with Co-EO, Jeff Lim. All these activities are experienced with the overflowing warmth & camaraderie of fellow SHCians. Thank you very very much!!

I agree with Terence, our inspirational Founder, that the immediate challenge for us is the Male_Female ratio. As a result of this ratio, there’s less dynamism than we would have expected in our events & activities. I believe a brain-storming session on this issue would be beneficial for the convergence on the disparity.

As I have moved to the other side of my own century, I feel great that there’s such a great club like SHC. I look forward to joining more events, and meeting many other fellow SHC’ians. I have even adopted Jonathan’s post as my personal motto : ” May the rest of your life be THE BEST OF YOUR LIFE”.
