The walk : Those who have done the Pipeline Ramble X-treme will find this walk relatively easy. The route, along the former railway line, will more or less be parallel to the Pipeline Ramble X-treme trail. But as we all know trains can’t go up steep slopes, so the walk will generally be on level ground.

There are several eating places at Rail Mall such as Cedele (deli), Subway (sandwiches), Ah Mei Cafe (prata, chicken rice), Eat (fish ball noodles). There are also a couple of pubs for those who are inclined for a mid-day tipple!

Way point 3 (6.4 km) – Break at Bouna Vista MRT 4.00 to 4.30 pm

End point (5.8 km) – End at Silat Road. 6.00 pm

There isn’t much by way of makan at this area. Depending on concensus we will adjourn to either Kereta Ayer Food Centre, People’s Park or Kok Seng (dinner point of Pipeline Ramble X-treme) for dinner.

Ever since the Club started, we have always maintained that all its activities can only be attended by members, and that attendees must be 45 and over.  This rule will continue to be adopted.

However, many SHC members are still young, and may have young children or grandchildren to look after. There are also cases where their brothers and sisters are still young, below 45.  And, of course, there are the grandfathers or grandmothers who are not able to participate in SHC; but from time to time, may want to enjoy a family day, with other grandparents.

The objective of the Family Day is to provide an occasion and place whereby family members get to meet other family members over a 2D1N or 3D2N affair.

1. First, as a rule, we will continue to maintain the over 45 age and events can only be attended by registered members.
2. Second, after some feedback from senior members, I am thinking that we can have a Family day.  This will be held once a year; we can have a committee.  Venue and price will have to be approved, prior to the acceptance of a Family Day.  In principle, the cost should be reasonable and low. Activities will be organised by an organising committee.  Every item or event must be organised by a SHC member, no external individuals or company.
3. Third, the Family day will be open to members of SilverHairsClub, their brothers, sisters, grandfather and grandmother, children and grandchildren.
4. Fourth, where possible, during the Family Day, there should be events for SHC members who come along and want to meet up with other SHC members only.

Last month, we had a hands-on session in one condo’s function hall. As for the Concern & Care venue, we are still awaiting their reply. So, for the time being, we still can meet at our usual place at Plaza Singapura. 

This coming meeting, we can discuss about the differences between the desktop computer, the laptop, the tablet, the iTouch/iPad, the smart phones and others.

We plan to have a small gathering of size not more than 12 SHC members including the EO, for an effective and meaningful discussion, on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Let’s explore yet another natural forest reserve.  A LUSH forest of tropical trees and shrubs, Enjoy its peace
and quietness…… GOOD for mental health, mood and some eye-cercise!    

I was there when I was  probably around 0.9m. I recalled to get to the reservoir one has to walk on a long
paved road, from a distance a rocket-shaped tower looms into view.  As I stand nearer to it, it seems to
tower over my small frame.  

This iconic observation tower still stands tall and straight but, gone is the feeling of its towering presence;
though from its top it still provides a panoramic view of the waters and surrounding greenery.

Seletar Reservoir was damaged during the Japanese war in 1941.  It was renamed Upper Seletar Reservoir
after the construction of  Lower Seletar Reservoir.  It is one of the 4 main reservoirs and its nature reserve
acts as a water catchment area, its waters is used for drinking and daily usage after treatment for the
people in Singapore.
Upper Seletar Reservoir has been expanded twice in capacity and in 1999 it became a marked conservation site!

When did you last visit Seletar Reservoir?   
Since you were a child like me or……   Never ever?      Come, join us!         

Stay cool Be cool!

When I  visited Sentosa last saturday, I realised that there is so much to see and do. It is so near and yet I wonder whether some of us had the opportunity to explore and enjoy all the scenes and activities right here. It will be like a family outing for us.

The itinerary as follows:

3:30pm   Meet at Vivocity Sentosa Station

4:00pm   Take monorail to Beach Station where the Palawan Beach is. Take a stroll down and enjoy the refreshing sea breeze and scenery.

5:00pm   Take monorail to Imbiah Station. At the Merlion Plaza standing at 37 metres high, this half lion. half fish creature is a delight to snap our camera at. There is also an escalator that brings us to the Imbiah Lookout and the Tiger Sky Tower and lots of things to do.

6:00pm   Next, take train to Waterfront Station where Resorts World is. Take in all the amusements here and enjoy the activities at Universal Studio. There is so much to do and take in here too.

7:00pm   Adjourn to the Malaysian Food Street where all the best of Malaysian hawker fares are waiting  to fill our hungry stomachs.

Those who are tired may take a train home after dinner. For others, the free show on the ‘Crane Dance’ starts at 9:00pm and another free show, the ‘Lake of Dreams’ starts at 9:30pm.

Another option available is for us to leisurely stroll back to Vivocity by the Sentosa Boardwalk.

Entry by monorail from Vivocity to Beach Station is $3.00, any other trips by monorail within Sentosa are free.

The sounding is out to all members to at least put up an event or activities for fellow members to participate. The thing to consider is that there should be no advertisement of the company organising the trip. Some members do keep a lookout for such cheap day tour or trip overseas and want other members to join in so that there is ample opportunity to interact and have fellowship together.

A trip may be planned strictly for members whereas in other where non-member are involved, a co-ordinator is required. I know some members are frustrated when their attempt to post an activity are rejected after several try.

On the one hand much encouragement are put forward for members to step forward and be involve in organizing activities, yet we feel that some of their efforts are curbed. Can there be some flexibility? Without doubt some company names will be mentioned in any tours but if we look at the greater picture the advantages and benefits to our members far outweighed any other consideration.

Dan

Date:      Saturday,  12th May  2012

Time:       4.30pm (approx 2.5hrs)        

Meeting Place :    MRT Station – EW25 Chinese Garden, Exit A beside a ‘Cheers’ store

End of walk :    MRT Station – Jurong East EW24
                        Makan place – JCube, new shopping mall or JurongEast Mrt Kopi Tiam-food centre.  

EOs :    ChristinaCL Chan and Serene Low

Brief Description:    

Terrain is EASY for all ages.      
Bring your cameras – very scenic!
Toilet facilities — at MRT station EW25. Next available approx 30/45mins later,
                                  many available at the Jurong Gardens.
Rain or shine, we will be there!

This month, let’s go West!
In the past years, it is rare that our monthly walks is towards this direction.

Where?  in this highly urbanized city we lived in to find a place that flows with greenery, peace, calm and
Serenity…. A gem in the West, of pristine beauty –  Jurong Lake and its Gardens!   

It is one of the "Destination Parks"  that will get a massive makeover – expect significant development that
will transformed it into the next big suburban commercial hub.

Let us troop down to Jurong Lake, a 70ha freshwater lake and reservoir to enjoy its breathtaking view
before the day draws near where this area is further enhanced, changed forever!   

Along the perimeter of Jurong Lake, a landscaped sanctuary Park was completed in 2006.  
Pause,  take in the sights across glistening waters ……    see families, friends chatting under shade of
trees, strolling at leisure in the park,  children frolic around with laughter, kite flying, fishing……
uhmmm…… breathe in,  to energize the following week’s hustle and bustle.
Look out for clusters of older banyan tress where their aerial prop roots spread out laterally like a small
fence along certain fringe of the lake, where the trunks are covered with an orangy hue – rarely found
or seen in Singapore.  

As one stroll into one of the Jurong Gardens found within the Lake, time stood still in nostalgia……….
step onto the ‘Pai Hung Ch’iao’ Bridge, the white rainbow, 13-Arch Bridge;  though this bridge is shorter
than the famous 17-Arch Bridge at the Summer Palace in Peking, it still maintains the magnificent
architectural design of a typical beautiful bridge found in China.
