I lugged my packed bag and met the rest of the volunteers at Newton station last Friday afternoon. And yay, so you might haved guessed it from the entry heading alrd, it’s camping time!
TVC’09 was really awesome! The camp was held at ACS barker’s Oldham Hall, and i really liked it there! Just a few keywords about the venue, the cosy sofas, warm showering water, humongous canteen, air-con rooms and the pretty chapel where we held some of our activities!
So day 1 of camp really left me an impression, the usual game of Captain’s ball was so different this time, much more spices of fun in it!
“… Now I’m going to throw this in and it worth a hundred points!”
and a raw chicken was threw in.
That startled me a little! It was really a raw chicken! So both teams started tossing the chicken around and laughing really hard. But throughout the game, we learnt about our choices as well! All of us had different ways of prioritising the different values of the raw chicken, tennis ball, red ball and basketball.
Day 2 revolves mainly about the race we had in the town area. I really think we demonstrated the 7 Trybe values throughout the race. They are namely, Resilience, Encouragement, Diligence, Serving, Committed, Virtuous and Zeal. I had fun making the videos that uphold morality. Really have to applause Darren for the wonderful idea, Adlar for his amazing acting and all the rest of us in Team B! We rock okay! Hahaha. The ‘100 seconds no NG’ station really tested our patience! Nevertheless, we’ve always encouraged each other whenever we had to restart everything. It’s really all about teamwork and motivating each other to continue! We got really dirty with the corn flour, the used rationed water from the previous team but i think that’s the best part! 
Now we remember the ‘RED Suzuki Car Visit Zoo’ ! Hahaha.
Dinner that evening was momentous. The setting, the ambience, the effort Trybe staff and committee made, it made me felt really special. It really brought me up to another level of service leadership, it may be some minor or insignificant thing you do for the people around you in your daily life, but, make them feel important! We’re all different and unique, that is how sparks of all good thing happen! I enjoyed dinner that night greatly, and i thank everyone who’ve made it happened! The grooming talk was really useful too, prepping and carrying myself appropriately for every instance.
We were tasked to come up with a proposal on day 3. A propose of event to raise public awareness of Trybe. We came up with the funfair idea! it was really brief but we were really eager to show all the different ways that we want to help in fanning out Trybe to the community and inspire more youth. The ideas all the team presented might really be incubated and i think the initiate of this was really fabulous. Dare to dream and creating it.
This is just another chapter and I’m genuinely looking forward to TVC’10! Kudos to the commitee members for planning such a marvelous camp! Thank you!
So im waiting for all the pictures from camp now! i’ll upload it once i get hold of them!
