Dear Members,
I hope this message finds you well. I want to share a personal update: I recently
underwent open-heart bypass surgery and am currently in recovery. As advised by my surgeon and cardiologist, I am taking it easy but look forward to returning to the Club more often. After over 40 years, the Club has truly become my second home, and I miss being around you all.
It has been a busy time at the Club, especially during the third quarter of the year. We had a fantastic Jazz Night in July, the Merdeka Day Countdown on 30 August, and the Karaoke Finals on 21 July. We also celebrated our fourth Introduction Night on 18 September, welcoming 57 new members to our family. We wish them all a joyful journey of clubbing ahead!
We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our new chairlift! This addition enhances our facilities, providing greater accessibility and comfort for our members. We hope this upgrade enhances your experience, whether you’re enjoying a day at the Club or attending an event. Come and check it out during your next visit!
This season has been filled with friendly games and tournaments. To celebrate Wimbledon, we hosted a delightful hi-tea social on 14 July, which received great support and wonderful reviews. The Spouses Tennis Tournament on 17 August was also a fantastic success, fostering camaraderie and sports-manship among our members. We had the pleasure of hosting a visit from Tanglin Club, further strengthening the connection between our clubs.
Additionally, we organized a Racquetball Championship from 17 to 24 August and a Squash interclub match with the Royal Port Dickson Yacht Club on 27 July. Our Golf social game at Bangi Golf Resort on 25 July brought together golf enthusiasts for a wonderful day on the course.
On 10 August, the Billiards section held its annual Section Dinner, while the Mahjong group celebrated Merdeka with an exciting competition between the Chairman’s team and the President’s team. Most recently, the Club hosted the 2nd Malaysia Day Snooker Tournament from 14 to 16 September. We had 10 clubs participating, coming from as far as Thailand, Singapore and Sabah.
Not forgetting our youngest members, the Club organized an origami workshop and cupcake decorating session, which was a delight to witness as our children enjoyed themselves.
My heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated in and supported these events. We look forward to more engaging activities in the future!
You can read more about all these fantastic activities in the separate pages of this Newsletter.
Until the next issue, stay safe and may God bless us all with good health and happiness.
