Intermittent rain did not stop golfers from teeing off but strong wind buffeted Changi golf course throughout the rest of the afternoon. Nevertheless, participants had an enjoyable and undoubtedly challenging golf outing that ended with dinner and prize presentation later in the evening. The event will however be remembered for a significant reason - former Club President LG Perry Lim was due to complete his term of office and this was to be the final event to be presided over by LG Lim. We bid farewell to LG Perry Lim in this issue of RV and extend a very warm welcome to our new Club President, Major-General (MG) Melvyn Ong Su Kiat, who is also the new Chief of Defence Force. In the other parts of this issue, we catch up with the ongoing Youth Inter-Club Bowling Mixed League. And also feature winners of the first Bowling Quarterly Medal. Well done bowlers! Club members and their families who joined the fishing trip to Lazarus Island on Mar 11 were winners too as almost everyone could boast of a catch that day! We are happy to report that no one had to resort to telling the story of the fish that got away! Enjoy your day at the Club!
