PRESIDENT’S<br />
MESSAGE<br />
Dear Members<br />
I would like to thank fellow members once again for their unwavering support<br />
at the 95th Annual General Meeting, and take this opportunity to announce<br />
that the Resolution to carry out Phase 3 of the <strong>Club</strong>’s redevelopment project<br />
and the renovation of Man Zhu Café and Three Bars was passed. I am pleased<br />
to welcome the office bearers for the term 2010/2011. The Management<br />
Committee will continue to work together to further improve the <strong>Club</strong> and<br />
maintain its standing as a premier <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
On 11 June, there were articles published in The Straits Times and Lianhe<br />
Wanbao relating to the expulsion of a <strong>Club</strong> member. In response to this matter,<br />
the Management Committee has issued a detailed clarification, which has<br />
been inserted in this newsletter for members’ reference. The insert contains<br />
events that took place prior to the publication of the articles and points that<br />
will help clear any doubts that members may have. Hence, I hope members<br />
would spare some time to read the insertion.<br />
On a lighter note, I am pleased to announce the launch of the debut issue of<br />
eFreestyle on the <strong>Club</strong>’s website in July this year. In line with the <strong>Club</strong>’s “Go Green” theme for the year, eFreestyle<br />
is an online newsletter, an initiative to help conserve the environment, and to reduce the <strong>Club</strong>’s operating<br />
expenses. With this in mind, members can choose to receive only one copy of the magazine per household, or<br />
opt out from receiving the hard copy altogether. To do this, simply fill in the form that comes together with this<br />
issue and return it to the <strong>Club</strong>.<br />
Meanwhile, we are working towards an electronic means of communication which means that in the near future,<br />
members will be able to receive <strong>Club</strong> news and activity updates via email. To enable us to do this, we urge members<br />
to update their details using the “Membership Register Updating Form” obtainable from the <strong>Club</strong>’s website.<br />
With health issues on the rise, the Sports & Lifestyle department has lined up not only physical activities, but<br />
also educational talks on health matters. The “Preventing and Beating Osteoporosis” workshop is organised<br />
especially for ladies, alongside the Enzyme Nutrition Health Talk and Chiropractic & Ergonomics and Chiropractic<br />
for Children Talk.<br />
For the energetic and restless, there is an all-new Mixed Dance Class that comprises of Belly Dancing, Bollywood,<br />
Hip Hop and Salsa all in one class. For those who are relatively new to meat cuts, take note of the two interesting<br />
workshops where Chef Roy returns to educate members on the choice of beef and pork cuts. The long-awaited<br />
Creative Painting class is also back to hone the creativity of kids and youths. Parents can also enrol their kids in the<br />
“Hands-on Finance Education” workshop to start them early on the topic of financial planning.<br />
Coming 9 August will mark Singapore’s 45th National day, the Management Committee and <strong>Club</strong>’s administration<br />
congratulate all Singaporeans on the country’s 45 years of nation building!<br />
Shalom and God Bless,<br />
Edwin Lee<br />
President<br />
