Fung Scholars Singapore Chapter – Bowling Event

About the Event

Written by Rui Zhi Abraham CHEE (FS2015-16, National University of Singapore)The Fung Scholars Singapore Chapter organised a Bowling event on 17th December 2016 at SuperBowl Toa Payoh for local scholars to network and meet new friends. SuperBowl is a bowling alley that has provided healthy recreation for young and old for over 25 years. The casual atmosphere encouraged participants to engage in conversations as they took turns to strike down pins. Through bonding events like this, we hope to foster strong friendships within our local community and beyond. A total of six Fung Scholars attended the event.
Abraham CHEE shared his experiences at the recent Fung Scholars Leadership Conference 2016 in Hong Kong and its focus on sustainability. Jamie KO (FS 2009-10, Singapore Management University), the chairperson of our local chapter, encouraged scholars to engage themselves in the community and to consider organising future activities. During the session, alumni shared their working experiences and perspectives regarding the corporate world.

Scholars were grouped into two teams to compete in three rounds of games. It is true that practice makes perfect – we observed how the overall scores of each team improved with each bowling game played. Of course, every game was accompanied with gutter balls, strikes, and buckets of laughter. The event was successful in strengthening the local community and we look forward to the next bonding session.
