Community Games 2013

From 16Mar to 30Jun 2013, the annual Community Games 2013 (CG2013) aim to “Bond Residents, Connect Communities”.

Organised by People’s Association and Community Sports Clubs, a slew of games are waiting for your family and friends to participate. Registration is free.

.
To quote from CG2013 :
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~
The objectives of the CG are:
(a) Develop a strong and inclusive sporting culture with passion and enthusiasm from all walks of life; and
(b) Enhance social cohesion and community bonding, linking people through mass participation and involvement.
~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~

Daddy always believe that Sports is a useful platform to instill discipline, perseverance and determination to mold a child’s character. Together, a family can always enjoy some outdoor activities like cycling, jogging, blading or even swimming.

Family activities will make our family bond stronger, everyone becomes fitter, and we nurture a love for the great outdoors. Unfortunately, Daddy is not quite the sporty type of person. Since he completed his NS cycle, Daddy’s fitness level has fallen. We hope CG2013 will push Daddy to buck up πŸ™‚


Are you already motivated, or curious to find out what is on offer from CG2013?
Do pop by CG2013 page and register for your Games now.

** These games are now open for registration (Badminton, Basketball, Bowling, Dragonboat and Football), but do take note that team members must be from different Ages, Races and Estates, as the idea is to connect a diverse community.


SengkangBabies are proud to be one of CG2013’s official bloggers.

Ice Skating at Jcube

If you see any of us limping recently, we have a good reason. We were invited by Capital Mall to Jcube’s Ice Rink. Ice skating is super Fun, but tiring πŸ™‚

As we made our way to the Rink, the sight of Ice and Christmas decorations set our hearts fluttering. “Christmas=White=Cold temperature“, our anticipation are heightened Yeah πŸ™‚

Daddy picked a weekday 1030 slot, as he thought there will be less people. So in case Daddy we should fall down, there will be less witnesses haha.

We were so wrong, this rink is very popular during the holidays period.

Thanks to our Capital Mall hosts, Shu Fen and Erza quickly help us to ease into our skating boots.

The ice Rink is inviting us to enter. Some kids are having skating lessons too.

We dispatch the first penguin…

.. followed by the second Penguin πŸ™‚

The penguins are available for rental at $10 per two hour. Sorry, Penguins are for kids only, otherwise Yi and Xin look so adorable gliding on the ice πŸ™‚

First timers will grip the side and slowly pace themselves around the rink, but slowly and surely, we pick up our tempo and our confidence spikes.

Marshall (those in yellow) will help skaters in distress πŸ™‚

Boon Xin in a Winter wonderland of her own.

Family fun, we heard the rink is especially popular for Dads to bond with their kids.

Falling down is part of the fun, however Daddy struggled to find his footing after he fell. Imagine all the diners at the surrounding F&B laughing at the rink side activities πŸ™‚

If you are newbie or fear embarrassment like Daddy, watch this clip before heading to jCube :p

Kids are usually more daring than adults, that explains why Mummy and Daddy could not catch up with them. Ice skating is an Awesome experience and family time for us !

SengkangBabies had so much Fun when we skate, or sometimes fall, would you be interested to experience some cold bliss soon?

Video : Look at the enthusiastic Fun revelers ! Daddy is so happy that our family got to enjoy some family time.

Photo below indicates the opening hours and rates for the rink and accessories.

Thank you Capital Mall for the invite πŸ™‚
We had some early Christmas Fun and celebration at the Rink, and although our ankles are bruised, we are definitely looking forward to more Ice skating Fun.

It is not easy to take a family photo on the Rink, everyone need to stand still, there are so many people skating around, but we got one nice Family photo πŸ™‚
