hello peeps.

today was the pre-event day for heal the earth. so basically, we went there and did couple of things plus got some important info tmr. if you dont read here, its your own problem if you dont know what to do tmr.

there are some things which i need to clarify:
1. since only nilar replied her attendance, i wouldnt bother to claim cip hours for you guys who didnt reply. how to claim? find out yourself. for ppl who attended both today and tmr, you are entitled 20 hours of cip and for ppl who attended tmr only, you would be entitled 8 hours of cip only. not sure why.
2. according to the person in charge, shuttle bus would be available from 6am at the usual shuttle bus pick up point. so ppl, PLEASE DONT WALK THERE! its very far from the mrt station and that there are plenty of domitories area around the place.
3. for ppl who didnt attend the pre-event today, you would be getting your t-shirt only tmr and attendance for you guys would be taken tmr. ATTENDANCE IS IMPORTANT! NO ATTENDANCE/CONFIRMATION OF PRESENSE AFTER THE EVENT WHEN THEY TAKE ATTENDANCE = NO CIP HOURS AND NO CERTIFICATES!
4. think that most of the S size shirt are given out today. only few remains! and its damn big. it almost resembles standard chartered marathon M-L size tee! so dont be greedy and just get the smallest size tee available tmr!
5. RVHS NPCC is grouped under the registration crew. ppl who didnt turn up today arent grouped! so do make sure you tell the person your school and ask for your roles tmr. most likely, if you tell them your school, i think they will group you will the RVHS NPCC.
6. lunch would be catered at around 12 plus. we would be split into batches for lunch. for milo lovers, their drink is MILO!
7. all volunteers are entitled free lunch, free event tee, certificate of participation as volunteer along with CIP hours, certificate of participant as record-breakers for singapore's largest painting done. as for goodie bag, im not sure though :/
8. REPORTING TIME TMR IS 7am at marina barrage!

thank you for reading if you do! see you tmr! - Jiemin (:

Hello everyone!

For those who signed up for the Heal the Earth CIP, please attend the pre-event day activity if you can make it. Since we all didnt turn up for the briefing as we had RV carnival, its better to go for the pre-event day and clarify any doubts you have with the person in charge tmr. For people who doesnt know how to get to the place:

1. take mrt to marina bay station. then, from the mrt station
2. take either shuttle service to marina barrage at 1245 if you are going tmr. (board at bus stop A and alight from bus stop B)

if you are going only on the actual day, please take train to marina bay and walk all the way as there isnt any shuttle bus services or buses available so early. :/

Im not sure about all the details as i also missed the briefing D: but according to its official page on facebook, it says: t-shirts would be issued tmr which is pre-event day, along with grouping and tasking for the event day. so its very important for people to attend the pre-event day!!!! so pls pls pls go! though i know everyone is busy!

Lastly, will all the people who signed up for heal the earth sms me to confirm whether you are turning up on both days or just the actual event day? this is to keep track of cip hours for everyone of you and also, to da-bao information for ppl who cant make it tmr so that you wouldnt be blur blur that day! this is for y0ur own good so SMS me!!!! thank you!

Jiemin (:
