This is the much awaited LCSG Treasure hunt.
 |
| Awesome art from Joeel and Andy sponsored buttons |
About 80 turned out to do this at Labrador MRT station. Many with the custom team tees. The mood was friendly yet competitive... and all ready to rock.
 |
| At the start line |
 |
| Cowboys and gals ready to ride and find the treasures! |
Encik George, the brain child of LCSG treasure hunt gave the briefing while the LCSG angels went off to man their stations earlier to prepare for the "takan" session.
The format of the treasure hunt was as follows.
3 Stations to visit. At each location the teams would be
asked to do some thing related to “old childhood games”
 |
| Map from Encik.. this are the waypoints |
 |
| Do you know where to find them? |
 |
| LCSG angels last min synch up before moving out |
Station 1 : Keng Yong with Brenda @ Labrador park. The task
for the team was kick the chantek (each) for min 10 times. It looks easy but it wasn’t. .. check
out the photos :)
 |
| Berenda and Keng Yong... as the Chantek station master |
 |
| Most torturous feathered thing known to LCSG |
 |
| Are u ready to have some fun... |
 |
| Unfair... he play football one |
 |
| Frast trying her best.. but I think she prefer cycling |
 |
| We all could do with a little help! |
 |
| Still got to cycle and find the spot.. shaggg |
 |
| So glad this is all over... haha |
Station 2: Vince Li with Ming Tian @ Kent ridge park hill.
The task for the team was spin a “Gasing” top and it must be
spinning for at least 15 seconds(it is a long time)
 |
| Vince and Ming Tian the spin masters! |
 |
| Imran show his team how it is done |
 |
| Nick Wong so happy to be able to spin the Gasing! |
 |
| Reliving their childhood... or starting it again |
 |
| Almost ready to throw the top towards the station masters |
 |
| @ Gasing proving grounds |
 |
| ok... let's go! |
Station 3: Steven Tang, Tiffany, Tiger and Diane @ Haw
Villa. The task was to use coin and throw into a chalk circle. It must land
inside a circle or keep throwing coins..
 |
| Steven's brilliant idea using just chalk and coins. |
 |
| Just throw... and curse.... cuz it rolls away.. |
 |
| Took some tries but we got it!! |
 |
| count and count |
 |
| Punchek but keep on going! |
 |
| Dun cheat or we feed you to the tigers... |
Lastly they have to find a series of locations to
photograph/ID as a team
It was quite a blast to see everyone
intensely working their butts and planning how to approach the issue. Some took
the “lets go for the toughest one first as we have fresh legs” while some just
“where har, where har” – Just whack.
The eventual winner was Rolling stones whom completed the
whole event by 1030. They were on fire and according to Tiger Wan, they simply
went flat out.. and u need to
check their dance moves as they couldn’t spin the tops.. J
Overall, it was a day of fun, sweat and laughter. The folks
went back with a greater understanding of the geography and a deeper friendship
that can only be formed when people “suffer” together.
A very very big thank you Encik George for the planning and
ideas. Desmond Chia for offering to drive us around to see if pple cheat haha.
Keng Yong, Berenda, Vince,
Ming Tian, Steven Tang, Tiger , Tiffany and Diana for manning the stations.
Uncle KC, Darren for the photography work. Axis cycles and Andy yap for sponsoring the
prizes.
See you folks for 2014
Treasure hunt!
Outstanding work, both in the run up to Treasure Hunt 2013 and during the actual event itself. Gestalt himself would be proud of LCSG where the sum of the parts is greater than the whole. A BIG thank you to the organizers and crew who provided yeoman services. And of course fellow participants and supporters. Cheers !
