the 30 hour famine's coming up again this year. this time its from june 5 to june 6, friday to saturday. its basically no food for 30 hours, but you will be provided drinks to supplement yourselves if you feel the need to. (you definitely wont go hungry.) there will be activities, games, groupwork, community involvement projects, and exhibitions on this year's theme (
“I Can. I Will. Make A Difference”; HIV/AIDS-related). and this year, somehow it starts at ACS (Barker) but ends at D'Marquee, Downtown East with a concert.
there is the same fee as last year: $30 camp fee. (to be submitted via check to World Vision International) also, a registration form to be signed by your parents. both are to be mailed to the office directly, or submitted personally. but should you want to sign up, i'll act as coordinator for our class if the school does not, or some students dont come up like they did last year. i'll check with the school asap to see if there will be a school signup first, will keep you guys informed.
besides signing up as a participant, there is the choice of signing up as a volunteer: group leader, stations i/cs etc. but as details are not up yet, i have no idea as to which posts they have, and how many training sessions you have to go for (yes, you do have to go for training sessions for these volunteer posts).
yupyup. thats all about this event. strongly recommend you to join, especially since (enlin and) i went last year and experienced it firsthand. $30 may be a bit much, but start saving now and it would work out. =) please try to go!
