OAC 2010, a social camp, was a 5 day 4 night event that was conducted from 28th June till 2nd July 2010. Here's what happened:
Night Cycling (East Coast Park -> NUS -> East Coast Park): A round ride through Singapore's scenic Central Business District, up NUS' unforgiving climbs, down the infamous "99 turns" South Buona Vista Road and followed by a tour around the old Kallang Stadium.
East Coast Pre-departure point (Group 2 alias "Atas")
Dragon Boating @ Kallang Basin: A race between Organizers and Participants
Boat 2 (Mostly organizers)
Gunung Lambak Trek:
Gunung Lambak Starting Point
Somewhere in the middle. Our first attempt of trekking Gunung Lambak. Nice, cool weather until the storm came. (Group 3 alias "Coffee-tiam")
Despite the torrential downpour, it is still necessary to take pictures. Stong, determined, armed with waterproof clothings, we are always ready for... picture taking! (Group 2)
Meet the happy people! (Group 3)
After some deliberation by the organizers, the rain was deemed too heavy to carry on and we headed back to our campsite which was also drenched. We were forced to move our campsite to the carpark to have our dinner and that too, was met with sweeping rains that directed us straight into a sheltered hall to have our rest. The angry clouds above was determined to grab our attention by sending us countless greetings in the form of lighting and thunder, which after several boomz, brought down the electricity for the entire area.
On our 2nd attempt in the morning, we finally arrived at the summit after several cases of leech bites and muddy shorts. The reward? A view of Kluang town from 510 metres above sea level.
